The next morning Lee Hyun began to prepare and put the camcorder in his bag.
“Jeju Island…the island of dreams. The best resort! I can’t believe that I’m going to Jeju Island.”
Ahn Hyundo had given him a phone call. They opened a new dojo in Jeju Island and he wanted him to go to see it. It was a good thing for Lee Hyun.
“I was worried about what I should be recording during vacation but to think that it would be
Jeju Island.”
Jeju Island, even when compared to other people, it would not fall short.
It was a natural environment with the clear blue Halla Mountains with horses and the beach that he could record.
“This is such a success. Not everyone can go to Jeju Island. I better get my passport.”
Lee Hyun put his passport in his bag.
Ahn Hyundo said that he needed his passport to get on a plane at the airport. To he had the written documents and photos taken care of for him for the overseas dojo. Usually one would feel suspicious when they think about it but he did not have the slightest bit of suspicion.
The airfare, lodgings, and meals were all free!
“Oppa, take care.”
“Yes, I’ll be sure to bring back souvenirs.”
His sister went to see Lee Hyun off at the Incheon International Airport.
Stewardesses were busy running around and showing foreigners where their luggage was.
“Indeed…”
It was a whole new world for Lee Hyun.
He came thirty minutes ahead of the appointed time for Jong Bom Ah to arrive.
“So you’re here.”
“Yes sahyung, I came early.” “Do you have your passport?” “Passport?”
Lee Hyun was puzzled.
He didn’t understand since it wasn’t needed unless one was leaving Korea.
“You need a passport to go to Jeju Island?”
Jong Bom Ah quickly answered him.
“We need to ride a plane.”
Lee Hyun only roughly knew what it was like to go on a plane.
One would know what it was like if they see a drama or a movie.
“I see, so it’s different from public transportation like a bus and I can’t just ride it.”
“This is a plane.”
Lee Hyun and Jong Bom Ah did not have much luggage other than a small bag. Lee Hyun checked the tickets that he had and they said Cairo, Egypt.
“Sahyung!”
“What?”
“This plane is going to Cairo?”
Lee Hyun roughly had heard about Egypt once.
“Isn’t this plane going to Southeast Asia?” “…”
The look on the faces of the other passengers was priceless.
‘How does he not know?’
‘Does he not even know where Egypt is?’
“As you know we are going to Jeju Island.”
“Exactly.”
“The plane directly to Jeju Island is expensive.”
“So you’re saying that… It’s like taking a bus and stopping in the middle.”
This sounded far too absurd to the other guests at the boarding gate.
To say that Jeju Island was a stop along the way to Egypt!
However, Jong Bom Ah looked very rough and had intimidating eyes so no one had the courage to tell the truth. So Lee Hyun took the flight to Cairo.
After the plane took off, a flight attendant began to walk around and pass out food and drinks. They simply passed by where Lee Hyun and Jong Bom Ah was. As soon as they got onto the plane they had fallen into deep sleep. The two of them crossed the sea past Central Asia and were on the plane heading to Cairo.
