It's a very short flight anyway, so mileage wouldn't be my first priority when it's 1/2 price on the KE code.
it's actually economy, the price for this route seems to be well managed by a few airlines, even budget airlines like Asiana is charging RM1.2k
so in terms of usd,
JL = 910 usd
KE = 395 usd (codeshare on JL flight)
Asiana = 266 usd
