Lee Soo Hyuk woke up groggily in his luxurious room 1408 of the Four Seasons Hotel Milano in Milan, Italy. The room was elegantly decorated with classic Italian furnishings and had large windows that provided a breathtaking view of the city's skyline. As he opened his eyes, he felt the softness of the plush bed beneath him and heard the gentle hum of the air conditioning. He yawned and stretched his arms, feeling the warmth of the Italian sun seeping in through the windows.

He sat up on the bed, feeling a bit disoriented from the long flight and time zone difference. He reached for the bedside table, where he had placed his phone the night before. He checked the time and realized it was 5:30 am – he had an early morning flight to catch. Lee Soo Hyuk rubbed his eyes and looked around the room, taking in the beautiful decor. He noticed the classic paintings on the walls, the antique furniture, and the stunning chandelier that hung from the ceiling. He felt grateful to have the opportunity to stay in such a luxurious hotel.

As he got out of bed, he felt the soft carpet beneath his feet and made his way to the bathroom. The bathroom was spacious and modern, with marble flooring and a large bathtub. He splashed cold water on his face and looked at himself in the mirror, his dark hair tousled from sleep. Lee Soo Hyuk brushed his teeth, feeling refreshed and awake after the cold water. He then took a quick shower to wake himself up and put on a plush robe. He made his way back to the bedroom and decided on an outfit for the day, opting for a comfortable yet stylish look of black jeans, a white t-shirt, and a leather jacket.

Feeling more awake and alert now, Lee Soo Hyuk walked over to the large windows and opened the curtains, taking in the stunning view of the city. He admired the architecture of the buildings, the bustling streets, and the vibrant colors of the sunrise. He tried to forget the nightmare he had last night, his day was starting and he focused on the early morning flight he had to catch, and he knew he had to get ready quickly to make it to the airport on time.

As Lee Soo Hyuk was finishing getting ready, he heard a knock on the door. He turned around to see his manager, Mr. Kim, enter the room. "Good morning, Lee Soo Hyuk," Mr. Kim greeted him with a smile. "I hope you slept well. Are you ready to leave for the airport?"

Lee Soo Hyuk nodded, picking up his carry-on bag. "Yes, I'm ready. Let's go."

Mr. Kim checked the room one last time to make sure they hadn't forgotten anything and then they both made their way out of the hotel room. As they walked through the hotel's corridors, Lee Soo Hyuk couldn't help but notice the elegant decor and the luxurious atmosphere. When they reached the hotel's lobby, Mr. Kim headed to the front desk to check out, while Lee Soo Hyuk waited in one of the comfortable lounge chairs. He watched as other guests walked by, admiring their fashionable attire and elegant style.

A few minutes later, Mr. Kim returned with the hotel's staff who were carrying their luggage. They quickly loaded the bags into the car, and Lee Soo Hyuk and Mr. Kim climbed into the back seat. As they drove towards the airport, Mr. Kim filled Lee Soo Hyuk in on their itinerary for the next few days, including their next destination and their schedule.

During the drive, Lee Soo Hyuk looked out the window and admired the stunning views of the Italian countryside. The rolling hills, quaint villages, and winding roads made for a beautiful sight. He felt grateful to be able to experience such a beautiful country and its culture. As they arrived at the airport, Mr. Kim helped Lee Soo Hyuk with his luggage and made their way to the check-in counter. They quickly completed the formalities and made their way to security, where they waited in line with other passengers.

Finally, he arrived at his gate and boarded the plane. Lee Soo Hyuk settled into his seat on the plane and fastened his seatbelt. He leaned back in his chair and looked outside the window, taking in the stunning view of the clouds and the vast expanse of the sky.
