The conceptual framework of “SensualHeat” serves as a critical lens for examining the convergence of physical sensation, emotional intensity, and thermal imagery within 21st-century entertainment media. This paper analyzes how popular media—specifically streaming dramas, interactive digital content, and music visualization—employ sensorial metaphors (heat, texture, friction) to construct narratives of intimacy, conflict, and catharsis.
