How do I add Asian language fonts to Mono Linux?

Linux 5.19.10-arch1-1 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I already have several Asian language fonts installed on the system, and they work fine in GTK & QT apps. But Mono seems to default to one of the default Windows fonts. (Understandable.) Which while breaking the system UI, would be fine if it wasn't lacking Asian language character sets. Specifically Japanese if that matters, I presume it doesn't since Asian language character sets are typically bundled. Unless I need to give a specific language/locale flag.

I tried Googling how to add Asian font support to Mono Linux, but Google AI misinterprets me and thinks I'm searching for Monospaced Asian Language Fonts for Linux. ‍♂️ I tried searching the Mono documentation for font and fonts but it did not turn up anything useful. Is there anyway to add more available fonts to Mono? (it apparently isn't just using the system fonts folder) Or even just a way to force it to use a specific font?
