How common are full remote jobs?

Hi everyone,

My bf is Japanese and I am a foreigner. I will be moving abroad in some time for academic reasons and he said he'll change jobs to a 100% remote one to come with me. it would have to be for a Japanese company since his English is very basic and the only other language he really speaks would be Chinese, but even that could be an issue at times. Since the moving date is not defined yet he hasn't really started searching but Im a bit worried since, where Im from, most remote jobs still require the employee to show up every one in a while in the office. For referencer – he has a bachelor in economics.

Does anyone know how the job market for these kind of fully remote jobs are rn for Japanese people? thx everyone!
