Seoul Raiders (traditional Chinese: 韓城攻略; simplified Chinese: 韩城攻略; pinyin: Hànchéng Gōnglüè; Cantonese Yale: Hon4sing4 gung1leuk6) is a 2005 Hong Kong film co-written and directed by Jingle Ma and starring Tony Leung Chiu-Wai, Shu Qi and Richie Ren. The film is a sequel to the 2000 film Tokyo Raiders.
Plot
Seoul Raiders sees the return of the agent Lam (Tony Leung Chiu-Wai). This time round Lam must team up with JJ (Shu Qi) a thief who like Lam is tracking a pair of plates used to make fake American dollars.
When the plates are captured and make their way to Korea, Lam gets on a plane and with the aid of his female sidekicks he searches for the plates in Seoul, tracking a man who he believes to have stolen them.
Lam, special agent of Japanese national security, enters into an intricate search for “The Avenger” a pair of flawless printing plates used for the making of counterfeit notes. During the hunt, he comes across JJ (Shu Qi), who happens be a thief with a hidden agenda. When JJ thinks she has successfully walked away with the plates, she does not realize Lam has preempted her by swapping it with an empty case.
Lam goes to the US Embassy with the plates to claim the $30 million reward offered by the US Government but is outwitted by a staffer there named Owen (Richie Ren), who manages to drug him and flee to Korea with the plates.
Lam immediately follows Owen to Korea and meets up with a bevy of pretty Korean assistants (Choi Yeo-Jin, Cho Soo-Hyn, and Cho Han-Na). When Owen is about to trade the plates with “Black Bear,” a top dog of the Korean underworld, Lam and his girls break in to thwart the deal, but Owen escapes with the plates in the nick of time.
Meanwhile, Lam bumps into JJ in Korea, and the pair decide to work together to take back the plates and split the reward. While Owen is immersing himself in a hot spring, Lam sneaks in and snatches the plates. He then uses the plates to lure Owen into his trap, arresting him in the end. Only then does he realize that Owen is in fact a CIA undercover agent.
While Lam and Owen reconcile and decide to cooperate to bring down “Black Bear,” JJ secretly retrieves the plates from Owen's hiding place but only ends up leading “Black Bear” to the plates and is kidnapped into the bargain.
Lam and Owen has no alternative but to meet “Black Bear” in a deserted sports stadium to settle the deal once and for all.
