When using HDRI for key lighting, sunlight doesn't work well with reflect glossiness.
Software version is 12.1

I think it's so called black highlights issue, a well known limitation of Corona light transport. You can read about it and possibly find workaround in this article: https://support.chaos.com/hc/en-us/articles/4528311915025-Known-bugs-and-limitations
I'm not Corona Team member. Everything i say, is my personal opinion only.
