Thanks to the Q&A, Ha revealed how she discovered she’d been cast on the show.“When I got the role, I was having breakfast with my mom at a cafe in Korea,” Ha recalled. “I stepped outside and it was so funny ’cause she kind of knew immediately when I was jumping on the streets of Gangnam that I got the role.”In the clip, the Halo star added that her mother “came out crying” soon after receiving the official update. “She was like, ‘We got to go home. I think I have indigestion,’ and so we left,” Ha added. “It was really beautiful to kind of, I guess share that moment with her.”Ha also recalled telling a close friend about her Bridgerton casting over FaceTime. “She was just like, ‘Oh my God. You’re on Bridgerton!’” she continued. “It’s so nice to have people who really love and support you.”Bridgerton Season 4 stars Yerin Ha and Luke Thompson. | Gavin Bond / NetflixWhile Benedict Bridgerton (Thompson) was confirmed as the next character to helm the Regency romance in July, Ha’s Bridgerton casting was announced the following month.
