There are two questions here:
1) Why Turkey has to agree to it?
2) Why Turkey doesn't agree to it?
Lets take the first question first. Those Kossovars that declared Kossovo as an independent state are ethnic Albanians yet the agreement of Albania was not needed.
Some countries recognize kosovo as an independent state, most don't. So the independence of Kossovo is in question.
In the case of the pseudo state called "trnc" there is no such question. No county except Turkey recognizes the pseudo state. So there is no case that the so called "trnc" is something independent. It is obvious to everybody, including you, that north Cyprus is ruled by turkey, not by any "trnc', and this is why the case in the ICJ would be Cyprus VS Turkey, and this is why Turkey would have to agree to it.
So why turkey doesn't agree to it? The answer here is even simpler: They know they are acting against international law and therefore they know that there is absolutely no possibility they can win this case. So they refuse legality, and instead they are trying to use their army to force and blackmail us to get what they want on our loss.
Turkey is not a member of the ICJ.
