Need for Advice. MA in TESOL or MA in linguistics?

I am a local English teacher in Hong Kong with teaching certificate, a MA in English and a CertTESOL. I am looking for a new place to change my teaching environment a bit, plus one of my closest relatives just passed away this year so I am kinda wanna escape from my hometown. Since I know Japanese so Japan is one of my top choices, but I was scrolling on the computer recently and it seems to me that the secondary and tertiary education market in Japan is quite dim.

In a long run, I am planning to have my PhD in Japan and teach in a university. I am not sure if it helps, but I am actively collaborating with different uni in Hong Kong and publishing papers. Just want to hear your advice to see if it's worth it to move to Japan now.
