Because Korea, the primary land mass that was fought over, was too close to Japan...therefore too close for comfort if it was an enemy. It was like Cuba is to the US...and which resulted in the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis; too close for comfort.

Russia, on the other hand, wanted the warm water sea port that Port Arthur had, which is right next to Korea. The Russians had no warm water (ice free) sea ports; and they needed them for their navy. If the Russians didn't have a navy...they couldn't expand.
