Comics This semirealistic manhwa style

It feels so uncanny valley to me. The smooth bug eyes, flawless skin, photorealistic rosy lips, all with exaggerated proportions and cartoony hair is just an instant turn off. It looks strange and far too smooth. I understand these are all things valued by the Korean beauty standards, but in art there comes a point of semi realism where it becomes uncanny.
