The most important detail is that your itinerary is definitely eligible for 24 hour visa free transit and you don't need any kind of visa.
You will print out your flight tickets and have those printouts with you. Also, you will declare in Seoul that you will travel to Rome via Wuhan using 24 hour visa free transit. After a short inspection of your tickets, you will be allowed to board the plane. One more important detail. Here you will ask whether your luggage will be tagged all the way to Rome. If you are flying on a single (through) ticket, this will be a case almost for certain, but you should ask just for a case. I think that you will travel on a single ticket by China Southern, so this should be just fine.
Upon arrival in Wuhan, you will approach 24 hours visa free transit counter where you will apply for a temporary entry permit to be allowed to exit the airport and to make a short exploration of the city. As far as I know, China Southern is usually very generous airline and they offer free accommodations if your layover is longer than 8 hours. Of course, I'm not entirely certain whether they are doing that only when the layovers are in Guangzhou or also in other Chinese cities. So, take a look and if you have a right to book a free accommodation, do it because this will increase your chances to be granted a temporary entry permit. Anyway, you should be aware that the issuing of a temporary entry permit always depends upon a discretion of immigration authorities on a day of arrival.
