Love Better Than Immortality - I think this is just what you're looking for. Historical drama but ML is viewed as the villain of that world, he is constantly going against the people who are considered 'good' and even goes against the female lead at the beginning just for power. Him and the FL have a love/hate relationship, begins to change his ways as him and the FL start to fall for each other, turning the tables on the story.
The Romance of Tiger and Rose - ML began by wanting to kill the FL but (Slight spoiler) the female lead knew the plan and stopped him, after that incident the ML began to view the FL very differently and slowly falls for her (While still planning on the sidelines), but he changes his ways as the story goes along, becoming a good person and he actually ends up protecting the place he first wanted to destroy.
Welcome 2 Life - Lawyer who helps criminals take advantage of the law, he gets sucked into a parallel universe where he is a good person, the FL helps him change while solving crimes.
