And while a Bridgerton-Heated Rivalry is far away on the horizon, Yerin is still focused on season four of the Netflix series, which premiered its second half on Feb. 26. And while the 28-year-old was “quite jet-lagged” from her travels, she was thrilled to be at the award ceremony where she’ll be taking on the role of Actor Awards Ambassador. 

“I'm just so excited and honored to be here with other actors,” she told E!. “I feel like I rarely get to be in places like this so it's really exciting.”

Aside from the excitement, Yerin has also been candid about some of the less thrilling parts of filming a steamy show like Bridgerton, namely that she developed follicultiies—a condition where the hair follicles become inflamed.

“There’s a scene where we are in a bathtub and basically I put baby powder all on me because I was told it would help dry my skin to put the intimacy wear on with my tape,” she explained on Capital Breakfast in February, “and then basically the next day after the bathtub, I got hives all over my body and got folliculitis and needed steroid cream.”

“But I blame myself,” she added, “because I think it was a combination of baby powder and the bath water.”

During the scene, she and Luke were submerged in a bathtub for around seven hours, and while he didn’t experience a similar reaction after filming, Yerin joked, “I’m a sensitive gal.”
