Why does Korean and Japanese cuisine lack in variety compared to the rest of Asia?

The rest of Asia is lots of countries, Japan and Korea are just 2. Thus, less variety.

They are geographical smaller countries with less agricultural variety.

Less trade routes too. A lot of Europe and Asia had the benefit of ingredients and ideas from elsewhere. A fair fight for Japan would be comparing it to Ireland. Korea isn't all bad.

Look how itty bitty they are compared to Asia as a whole.
Combined they make, what, one province of China?

You might as well ask why the Duchy of Brittany doesn't have the same variety as the European Union.

Oh, congrats, you just picked out two of the most homogenous countries IN THE WORLD!
Basically, countries with heavy trade absorbed much from other cultures. And since both were closed off from trade for many years, their cultural diets have remained very traditional until recently.
Hell, according to most reliable historical sources, Kimchi as we know it doesn't even exist until red pepper trade with the Portuguese.
The same can be said of Japanese Teriyaki or Kobe beef which weren't eaten until the latte 19th to early 20th century after Meiji Restoration and the introduction of Korean BBQ to Japan.

in Korea's case, there's only so many ways you can combine pork, cabbage, cheese and hot sauce.
