4 in Love is a former Taiwanese all-female pop group. In 2000, BMG recruited four girls between the ages of 16 and 19, and named them 4 in Love. Ling Chia-lin, Huang Hsiao-rou, Yang Cheng-lin, and Chang Chi-huey were each given new names based on different weather types: Cloudie, Sunnie, Rainie, and Windie, respectively. The label's strategy for the group was to promote their doll-like voices,zh icon [http://ent.mtvtop.com/file/hyxw/2006/08/25/9110.htm Taiwanese music industry blowing "cute winds"; three artists fighting for the title of "The Mistress of Cute"] .
