  4. D

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let us look at the standard directions on a compass. The angle between North and South-East is in the counter-clockwise direction.
According to the question:

* South-East rotates by counter-clockwise to become North.
* North-East rotates by counter-clockwise to become West.

Applying the same counter-clockwise rotation to South:

* Rotating South () by counter-clockwise brings us to the original position of North-East ().

Thus, South will become North-East.
