This has happened countless times to me. But do not search forums, you will quickly be up in arms with expensive "coil solutions" and many other half applied logic.
Change your knock sensor.
You can get one on eBay for 10-20$ Hyundai authentic. It is a 5-10 minute job and I would say could be done by any level of skill. All you do is disconnect one wire and unscrew the sensor (following connecting the new one and re-screwing).
LET ME STRESS THIS ... keep your old sensor. I have to basically do this twice a year and I have a lot of luck just cleaning up the old sensor as a backup that will at least prolong buying a new one for another 3 months. It has worked with two of my old sensors so far. It is cheap and quick to only do once or twice a year!
Your shaking, shutoff, electrical, and transmission WILL ALL BE FIXED. There are not multiple problems, even though it seems like it is time to junk you Accent. Try this before anything else and don't buy it for $100 at an auto store.
