Two photos rejected for “Quality Issues” — looking for feedback

Hello,

I would like to get some feedback on two photos that were rejected by Adobe Stock for “Quality Issues.”

I am trying to understand whether the rejection is mainly about technical image quality, or whether composition, usability, or overall stock value may also be factors.
 

1. Huinnyeoul Coastal Tunnel, Busan, South Korea

This is the original image with no post-processing.

It was taken with a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5 and submitted at 2048 × 2048 pixels.

The tunnel is a tourist spot in Busan, and the main subject is the view of the sea and Busan cityscape through the tunnel.

What do you think is the main reason this image was rejected?
Is it softness, noise, exposure, composition, or something else?
 

2. Kimchi fried rice

For this image, I will attach both the original and the edited version.

The edited version only has basic adjustments such as exposure, highlights, shadows, and sharpening.

This is a Korean food image, and I would also like to know whether the issue is mainly technical quality or whether the composition/stock usability is considered weak.

I would really appreciate your honest opinion on whether these images could be improved and resubmitted, or whether the original image quality is simply not sufficient for Adobe Stock.
 

Thank you!
