🔥 火暴 = fire (火) + violent/sudden (暴): a fiery temper, or a hot, booming business
火 is fire and 暴 means violent or explosive, so 火暴 literally reads fire-violent. The same fire-hot sense extends from a quick temper to a market or show that is hot, booming, and wildly popular.
火 — pictograph of flames rising
火 is a pictograph showing flames rising upward from a fire, with the central stroke as the main blaze and the side strokes as sparks. The ancient oracle bone form looked even more clearly like a burning flame. It still means 'fire' today and serves as a common radical in characters related to heat, burning, or cooking.
