Yea...it will take quite a lot of societal change before plenty of young professionals would be happy to immigrate to Japan at least. Terrible work culture and "No Foreigners" signs chief among them.
it makes you think for a moment when a central government thinks it would be worthwhile to create a map for citizens showing where they might encounter foreigners [0]
some examples of no-foreigner signs: from 2014 [1], 2018 [2], COVID [3] [4], New Years Eve 2021 [5]
