As one data point, I have a similar situation (UK-Korea/Japan-UK) and my travel insurance (which is supposed to be one of the better ones) would only cover any costs based on advice from the FCO. Ridiculous as it is, they said they would cover quarantine costs in Japan if I undertook my itinerary rather than covering costs to reroute me UK-Japan so I avoid Seoul. Bonkers.
If FCO updates their travel advice to Japan mentioning the quarantine for people travelling from CN/KR then they would cover.
