Toward the east Asia to Europe is equivalent (or greater that Europe) where the three countries are just progressive enough. What is the problem? I mean economically separated.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by 'separated', but I think the different between the two groups are communist (China) / dictatorship (North Korea) v.s. democratic (Japan, South Korea, Taiwan).

Note that Hong Kong had already been returned to Hong Kong, so if you are going to group those east Asian countries, then it should be listed on China's side.

Taiwan is officially part of China as UN hasn't yet approved it's independence, so even though it has rather democratic structure, it may also fit on China's side.

With regards to Mongolia, it is kinda democratic, but it is a country without much power being surrounded by China & Russia.

Now, the best example of what you called the 'separation' would be North & South Korea. They were one of the many victims of the Cold Wars between United States & Soviet Union. After Japan had lost WW2, the country were separately controlled by the two countries, and had been divided thereafter.
