How it's used
This phrase is an aggressive and vulgar way to demand why someone is shouting. The inclusion of 春 acts as a mild profanity that intensifies the speaker's annoyance or impatience. It is strictly reserved for heated arguments or situations where you are genuinely fed up with someone's volume.
Examples
Stop yelling all the time, don't be so loud.

Common mistake
Do not use this in formal settings or with people you do not know well, as it is highly confrontational and rude. It is not a genuine question about the content of the shouting, but rather a command to be quiet.
