Why are Palestinians the only group of refugees who have their own UN body? Everyone else is in UNWHR yet they have UNWRA?

Edit: meant UNHCR not UNWHR (all refugees) https://www.unhcr.org

Vs. UNWRA (Palestinian only) https://www.unrwa.org

Only other refugee UN body’s to exist was UNKRA (for Koreans) from what I see in the replies https://archives.un.org/content/united-nations-korean-reconstruction-agency-unkra
