This is not true at all! I think it depends
A LOT on your personality and will to make it there without.
A friend of mine went to Japan with the Working Holiday Visum.. did some Woofing and then found a Job as a Teacher in Kyoto..
Now, he's there for 3 years already and has Zero intentions of coming back anytime soon.. because well, Girlfriend is Japanese^^
7 more years and he can apply for a citizienship
If you want something in Life reach out and grab it!! Don't rely on what other people on the "Internet" might want to tell you
I'm going to do the exact same thing next year and I hope I will never return!!! But I also plan on searching for a University in Japan or Korea.
edit: you might not be able to apply for the WHV.. which makes it a little harder, but you can still go there and search for a Job. If you don't make it in 3 months take the ferry to Korea, try it there and go straight back to Japan.. Continue.
What you need is money and dedication!
