And now really wondering if the 'girls' in pictures of the articles are artificial dolls which are quite well made, or are they humans? The article playing it really ambiguous, and can't be bother to read through comments. If i have to guess based on pictures, i will say dolls. But somehow have a feeling that the article was just poking fun on Korean cosmetic industries
My further comments: they are either very well made doll, or the term inhumane have a literal meaning at last

They're people, it's just a style of makeup taken to extremes and then turned up to eleven. The "dolly eyes" makeup is often used in lolita fashion (especially by sweet lolita) and also in dolly kei fashion.
These girls took the "dolly eyes" style and went absolutely batshit insane with it, and the result is rather creepy.
They also seem to be using the "anime eyes" contact lenses that make their eyes look huge, which is contributing to the uncanny valley effect. They're not realdolls or anything.
