Unfortunately vertical typesetting is not supported by ConTeXt. That's a big pity.

If horizontal typesetting is fine, this little working example with furigana might give you some hints. Hiragino Mincho Pro should be installed by Default on MacOS.
\enableregime[utf] % enable unicoded input
\definefontfamily [JapaneseFont] [rm] [hiraginominchopro]

\setupruby[location=top,voffset=-1.6ex, ]
\starttext \JapaneseFont
\ruby{僕}{ぼく}はもう\ruby{寝}{ね}る。
お\ruby{休}{やす}みなさい＾＿＾
\stoptext
