That could be due to being away from friends and family and a failure to build new connections within their new nation
From what little I understand for Confucius Nations they don't really have away for people to integrate and be classed as
Korean, Chinese Japanese or other it a person from the west or Africa moved to Far East they will never be seen as one of them
Also their are the cultural and social expectations that can be very different modern life can also be to blame as well
Human beings were not designed to be happy they were designed for survival due to evolutionary pressures
You can live somebody, do things farther be very cooperative as well as anything else to try to make people happy
But they would still be unhappy because it's part of human nature
It's not a man or a woman's job to make the other person happy only to try to live them the best you can and for
Both people's to due their duty for each other
