How it's used
Describes a state of intense, visible rage where someone appears flushed or heated. It is often used to describe someone who is visibly losing their temper or reacting aggressively to a provocation. The imagery evokes the physical sensation of heat and redness associated with extreme anger.

Common mistake
Do not use this to describe the literal color of an object, as it is strictly reserved for describing a person's emotional state of anger. It is not interchangeable with simple adjectives like 嬲 or 發火 because it carries a stronger, more descriptive connotation of being heated and visibly agitated.
