Debut Origins

Yotsuba Choco was born in Hunan Province, China, a music artist ocean vegetarian and pacifist.

丨In early 2021, published Minecraft-related videos on the internet under the self-media creator name "Fish_Lucky".
丨On September 30, 2022, founded Bai Zi（白梓）TeAm Studio. The studio aimed to release humorous videos for the audience, focusing on viewers' emotions. After multiple conflicts and disputes, the studio gradually became unnoticed. The originally planned studio name "White Tide Cultural Communications Co., Ltd." was also preemptively registered by others.
丨In early 2023, Bai Zi（白梓）TeAm Studio announced its dissolution. Yotsuba felt she was searching for an emotion that might exist, one belonging to herself.
丨In October 2023, diagnosed with severe depression and obsessive-compulsive disorder, later developing bipolar disorder.
丨On July 27, 2024, attempted songwriting for the first time, releasing the first instrumental track "Fusheng" non-exclusively on NetEase Music; also first used 四つ葉ココちゃん as her stage name.

"Creating in boundlessness and pursuing perfection within rules, floating might be better."

— Yotsuba's Thoughts

On July 14, 2025, Yotsuba Choco debuted independently with the J-Pop album Colorful Sea. Solely responsible for arrangement, composition, lyrics, performance, vocals, mastering, mixing, release, business, social media, visual creation, and editing.

Promoting music traditions and modern culture of the Asia-Pacific region, exchanging with world music culture; Yotsuba hopes to fulfill her country's ideals, promoting world peace and cultural development.

Stage Name Origins

The latter part of 四つ葉ココちゃん, “ココちゃん”, is derived from the main character "Cocoa / ココア" in the TV anime Is the order a Rabbit? (Hoto Kokoa). Love for hot cocoa reminded Yotsuba of her fondness for chocolate, while "四葉" (four-leaf clover) continues the lucky symbolism in her stage name. The four leaves symbolize her own androgynous traits and bipolar disorder characteristics. In fact, these traits greatly aid Yotsuba in her music creation.
Visually balanced, Yotsuba keeps every character in 四つ葉ココちゃん without abbreviation.

Multilingual Stage Name Origins

· 四葉可可醬 / 四葉可可醬 (Chinese Stage Name); originates from Bilibili ACG culture, "Choco" from cocoa powder.
· Yotsuba Choco (English Stage Name); derived from the romanization of 四つ葉ココちゃん, Choco is short for Chocolate.
· 요츠바 코코쨩 (Korean Artist Name); Korean transcription of the Japanese pronunciation.
· Cacao Trèfle Phase 4 (French Stage Name); "Trèfle" means clover in French, Phase 4 implies "fourth phase", representing the experimental nature of songs.
