How do I reduce color loss in Chroma Keyer?

Hey, I'm working on a project. And while Chroma keyer is working, it unfortunately reduces all other greens to yellow, and I can't seem to restore their color. Overall, how do I restore most if not all of the original colors lost whenever I use chroma key?

Also yes I'm aware of thresholding.

If you're using green key, don't shoot any other green in the scene.
With your animation, you could try changing the hue of the non-key areas.

You have an awful lot of green everywhere I look in the image, so of course the overall color will change when you drop out the green.

Even your green is not green, so if you are using that color to drop out the green, you are also dropping out some red and blue:

You might try using the secondary color corrector first to change the background to pure green.
