The story is of the typical Hong Kong martial arts theme prevalent in the late 70’s.
While running away from home to avoid his “punishment”, Fei Hung still inadvertently meets Beggar So (dressed up as a beggar no less), and begins his training. He is renowned both for his martial art style, 'Drunken Fist' as well as his alleged penchant for over-training students to the point where they become crippled. Fed up, his father, Kei Ying arranges for him to be trained under his friend, Beggar So (Sam Seed in other versions). He was delinquent in his studies and often played pranks on others. Fei Hung (or Freddie in the English-dubbed version) was a very mischievous young man and often got into trouble.
This film is a fictional story about legendary Chinese figure Wong Fei Hung, and set when he was a teenager. Drunken Master is a 1978 comedy and martial arts motion picture starring Hong Kong actors Jackie Chan, Yun Siu-tien (Simon Yuen) and Hwang Jang Lee.
