I am Ganesh Gandhi, an Independent Advisor and Office Insider for Android, and a Designer. I am here to work with you on this:
I suggest all time typeface that perform exceptionally well for print:
'Source Han Sans'
Refer here:
https://blog.typekit.com/2014/07/15/introducing...
I also recommend to use "Noto Sans CJK {JP, KR, SC, TC}" for stylish font to print :

(refer image)
Noto CJK fonts come in 4 packaging formats. Glyph designs are identical regardless of the packaging format.
In font filenames, JP, KR, SC, TC represent Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese respectively.
If you need specific font for each language,
Hei Ti, a sans-serif that resembles “Helvetica”. (For Chinese)
Also try:
Mincho typeface, also known as Ming or Song , the most used font style in print for Chinese and Japanese.
It's main characteristics are the presence of small serifs vertical stroke width (vertical strokes are generally narrower than horizontal strokes).
Kindly follow this rules for perfect Japanese typography:

Noto Sans is best for Korean to Print.
Do let me know if you require any further help on this. I will keep working with you until it's resolved.
