This study investigates the influence of fourth-generation quarks on double-lepton polarizations in the BK+ decay. Taking |V_{t^{\prime}s}V_{t^{\prime}b}|\sim \{0.01-0.03\} with a phase of about 100°, which is consistent with the bs+ rate and the Bs mixing parameter \Delta m_{B_s} , we have found out that double-lepton (μ, τ) polarizations are quite sensitive to the existence of the fourth generation. It can serve as an efficient tool to search for new physics effects, precisely to an indirect search for the fourth-generation quarks (t', b').
