This looks like a known problem with hyphenation in kepubs. For some reason, best known to Kobo, the number of characters to the right of the hyphen (sometimes? always?) includes the punctuation characters. You can see that in both the examples you've highlighted in your photo.

All you can really do is increase the number you use for the right-side from 2 to something bigger. It won't make the hyphenation problems disappear but it might make them slightly less irritating

If you're using the calibre KoboTouchExtended driver to create your sideloaded kepubs I believe its config widget allows you to choose your hyphenation right/left values.
