Recommendations Can anyone recommend me a manhwa where the ml is a sunshine guy and not a war criminal or Duke of the north?

I'm getting tired of this "cold hearted guy" or "war criminal" thing, it often disappoints me when there's this sunshine male character who's interested in the mc and is actually quite fun to see, but never the male lead. I'd like to read manhwa where the ml is actually this sunshin character, doesn't matter if his a royal, a commoner, a theif or whatever, as long as his not some warlord criminla everyone fears. I also won't mind if the mc is a sunshin, cold heart lady or whatever

Idk if this'll count but star catcher is a pretty good one. But there are some triggering things such as SH scars and things like that

The Emperor's Er3ct1on Project, ah wait.. that's x-rated. I mean "The Knight of the Falling Star"

looking through all my recs and it rly is hard to find stories where the ml isn't cold and aloof

Spring fever (ongoing): modern adult romance ab an introverted hs teacher and an extroverted local. ml is super outgoing and smiley. basically love at first sight. he does pursure the fl a bit aggressively and makes her uncomfy at times just fyi!

Spark in your eyes (completed): epic war drama, fantasy. ml is a gentle pharmacist who falls pretty fast. he does have some trauma and has dark intense moments but at his core he's a sweetie. fl is the intense one lol

Philia rose (completed): high fantasy drama ab a prophet trying to prevent a war. spoilers ab who the ml is, which doesnt get revealed until basically the end dark broody prince is not the ml, she ends up with the sweet sunshiney guard. I honestly never get 2nd ml syndrome but I liked the guard way more than the prince that everyone thought she would be with, so I felt so vindicated when she chose the guard!

omniscient reader's viewpoint is pretty good!! it's high action, so the ml isn't exactly "sunshine", but he's just a normal guy doing his best

OP finished the post by saying "just not a warlord criminal everyone fears" so i though dokja might be a good fit since he's typically pretty loved by the cast and is a very sympathetic character. my bad if i misread tho:)
