Check out what happened in The Accidental Spy!
As the cinematic curtain rises on 'The Accidental Spy', we are transported to an Anatolian village where death seems to stalk its residents, claiming countless lives as pneumonia ravages the community. Meanwhile, a team of scientists valiantly searches for a cure, their efforts seemingly doomed from the start. But amidst this backdrop of despair, a terrorist group disguised as farmers strikes without warning, leaving destruction and chaos in their wake. The screen fades to white, only to slowly give way to the passage of time, revealing that a former North Korean spy has materialized at the Embassy of the Republic of Korea in Istanbul. The title sequence of 'THE ACCIDENTAL SPY' unfolds before our eyes.
Fast-forward two months to the bustling streets of Hong Kong, where Buck Yuen (actor name), an unsuspecting exercise equipment salesman, unwittingly thwarts a brazen bank robbery and becomes an overnight sensation in the media spotlight. That same night, a mysterious stranger named Manny Liu appears out of the shadows, seeking men of Yuen's age and description on behalf of a terminally ill Korean man named Park Won-jung. This enigmatic figure, driven by a desperate desire to pass on his vast fortune to his long-lost son, sets in motion a chain reaction that will change Yuen's life forever.
Yuen's journey takes him to South Korea, where he meets the ailing Park in a military hospital. As their bond grows stronger, Park presents Yuen with an intriguing proposition - participate in a high-stakes "game" where the reward is Park's entire estate, should Yuen emerge victorious. Failure would merely provide a thrilling adventure. Park also gifts Yuen a crucifix reminiscent of the one he sees his parents holding in his dreams, a symbol of hope and connection to his past.
In the aftermath of Park's passing, Yuen scatters his ashes at his wife's grave, only to discover an eerie message etched onto the tombstone: "wait for me". This cryptic phrase sets Yuen on a collision course with danger as he narrowly avoids attacks from ruthless thugs alongside Carmen, a plucky reporter. As the stakes escalate, Yuen begins to unravel the mystery behind Park's dying words and the phone number ("wait for me") that holds the key to unlocking a hidden world of espionage and deception.
As Yuen navigates the labyrinthine streets of Istanbul, he finds himself entwined in a complex web of intrigue when he uses the seemingly innocuous crucifix-turned-stamp to unlock Park's safety deposit box. The contents, however, are far from trivial, and soon Yuen is beset by a group of robbers attempting to pilfer his briefcase full of cash. With his wits and cunning, he manages to fend them off until the authorities arrive, sending the would-be thieves scattering. Amidst this chaos, Yuen's path crosses with Yong, an enigmatic Chinese woman whose scarf bears the cryptic message "wait for me". When he inquires about its origin, she arranges a clandestine meeting, further piquing his curiosity.
As Yuen indulges in the luxuries of a traditional Turkish bath, he is abruptly accosted by a group of roughnecks demanding that he hand over "the thing". A frantic chase ensues, culminating in Yuen's narrow escape. However, he arrives at their agreed-upon meeting spot late, only to be confronted by Carmen and Philip, who reveal themselves as CIA operatives. The stakes are higher than Yuen could have ever imagined: the coveted prize is none other than Anthrax II, a more potent biological weapon that has already claimed countless lives in Anatolia, where it was used as a testing ground. Park's involvement in the case took a devastating toll on his health, leaving him with brain cancer.
The CIA agents inform Yuen that Zen, a notorious crime lord, is hell-bent on acquiring Anthrax II and has dispatched Yong to gather intelligence from Yuen. As he grapples with this revelation, Yuen encounters Yong once more, only to confirm her connection to Zen's underworld empire. Their momentary reunion is abruptly cut short when they are captured by a group of thugs and brought back to the Anatolian village, where they become entangled in a maelstrom of violence. As the villagers are brutally beaten, a contingent of mercenaries descends upon the scene, slaughtering their captors. Amidst the chaos, Yuen and Yong manage to escape on a makeshift raft, only to be plucked from the waters by Zen himself. In a stunning twist, he reveals that he dispatched the mercenaries to rescue them, further solidifying his grip on Yong, a drug-addicted pawn in his game.
Zen presents Yuen with an ultimatum: deliver Anthrax II and secure a hefty sum, as well as Yong's freedom. Although Yuen refuses to yield, Zen still affords him a narrow window of opportunity to find the deadly biological agent, setting the stage for a perilous adventure that will test Yuen's mettle and unravel the tangled threads of his adversaries' machinations.
As Yuen's memories resurface, he recollects the presence of a sacred text within the safety deposit box. In a quest for answers, he ventures to a nearby church, where he encounters a priest who has a connection with Park. The cleric guides Yuen to the church's subterranean level, where Park had temporarily taken refuge; upon discovery, Yuen finds two vials of Anthrax II and a cryptic message reading "game over." Feeling a sense of trepidation, Yuen reluctantly surrenders the Anthrax II to Zen in exchange for Yong's freedom. However, this transaction proves to be a fatal mistake as Zen betrays Yuen by administering a lethal dose of drugs to Yong at the train station. Following Yong's tragic demise, Yuen finds himself behind bars, only to be bailed out by Carmen and Ashley.
Carmen's subsequent revelation that the CIA is secretly meeting with Zen to acquire the Anthrax II sparks Yuen's determination to take matters into his own hands. He sets out to thwart Zen at the airport, engaging in a fierce battle and managing to reclaim the Anthrax II. As the situation unfolds, Zen and his henchmen flee in a vehicle, prompting Yuen to give chase. The ensuing high-speed pursuit culminates with the car becoming stuck behind a tanker, which is perilously close to igniting due to an impending explosion.
With the tanker heading straight for a disused bridge's edge, Yuen springs into action, saving the driver and his son from the inferno. As he desperately attempts to prevent disaster, Manny Liu appears in a helicopter, attempting to rescue Yuen but ultimately failing. In a last-ditch effort, Yuen leaps from the tanker, grasping the plastic bridge barrier as he plummets down. He rolls down an incline, sustaining severe injuries from the fall and becoming unconscious.
Upon regaining consciousness in a hospital setting later, Yuen discovers that his entire adventure was actually a CIA-mandated mission, orchestrated to be carried out by him as an informal, non-official agent – an "accidental spy." His selection for this role was rooted in his troubled past as an orphan, coupled with his exceptional intuition and fighting prowess. Moreover, Liu reveals that the cherished dream of Yuen's parents is, in reality, a fabrication created to place him under hypnosis.
In a post-credits scene, Yuen, now officially a spy, delivers a briefcase to a drug dealer in Italy before discreetly alerting the authorities to apprehend the perpetrator.
