1.I heart some current noise when I put my ear near my iMac, is that normal?
2.I can see my fan is spinning when I turned my iMac on, the temperature should be but I don’t understand why the fan is spinning.

What type of noise is "current" noise?
I don't think I have heard a noise that I might describe as "current" noise.
 
"electric flow" is also not an identifiable sound (just my opinion there)
Maybe it is actually "coil whine" --- or "static" or hum from the speakers

Yeah coil whine is a common problem with some hardware (like my sonnet RX 560 TB3 egpu) the OP might want to google his model identifier to see if the problem is common
