I disagree. ML in sadistic beauty was waaay worse. MC was beat up many more times and he was raped WAY more times. MC is in love with ml in this one since they were kids. MC in sadistic beauty only comes back to him because of Stockholm syndrome and loneliness. It’s way more cruel. In this, they’re both living such miserable lives and do want to be happy together but how can they with the trauma they’ve experienced? It’s just different imo. I think sadistic beauty can be more compared to ‘revenge’ (I forget the other names it has..) and in that case revenge is waaaay more intense. Anyway, yeah that’s just my opinion tho lol

this is much more intense than sadistic beauty
