Code Name: Jackal is a 2012 South Korean action-comedy film directed by Bae Hyoung-jun and starring Jae-Joong Kim, Song Ji-Hyo, and Dal-su Oh. The movie follows a famous pop singer, Choi Hyun, who is targeted by a notorious killer, Bong Min-jung, also known as the "Jackal." The story takes place over the course of a day, starting with Choi Hyun arriving at a hotel for a photoshoot. It's revealed that he is secretly gay and is planning to come out to his fans with a new song. Meanwhile, Bong Min-jung is hired to assassinate Choi Hyun by an unknown source. She is a skilled killer and has a plan to take him out, but her plan keeps getting foiled by unexpected circumstances.

As Bong Min-jung begins to execute her plan, we see her preparing all of her tools and equipment for the kill. She tries to lure Choi Hyun into a trap by pretending to be a fan and offering to give him a gift. However, her plan fails when a couple mistakes Choi Hyun for another person and the gift ends up in someone else's hands.

Despite the setbacks, Bong Min-jung continues to pursue her target, causing chaos and destruction along the way. Meanwhile, Choi Hyun is completely oblivious to the danger and continues with his photoshoot, blissfully unaware of the assassin who is after him.

As the day progresses, Bong Min-jung's plan becomes more elaborate as she attempts to get closer to Choi Hyun. She fakes an injury and is taken to the same hospital as Choi Hyun, where she plans to kill him. However, her plan goes awry when she is mistaken for a patient and gets sedated.

The antics of the characters throughout the film create a comic relief from the tension. The funny scenarios show the contrast between the two characters' personalities. While Choi Hyun is a flamboyant pop star who enjoys being the center of attention, Bong Min-jung is a cold and calculated assassin who takes her job seriously but is always foiled by comedic misunderstandings.

Overall, Code Name: Jackal is a lighthearted action-comedy that delivers a fun and entertaining experience. It's a film that packs a punch with top-notch action, humorous moments, and a great storyline.
