Listen up - here's the answer. I was having the same problem with Korean subtitles in VLC player coming up as gibberish. If you wanna be able to use the Korean SMI subs properly you need to change one of the preferences.

Short version: In preferences, click on the Subtitles & OSD tab. Under the "Default encoding" dropdown, choose "CP949"

Long version: here

Any way to have the subtitles work with Windows Media Center in Vista or W7 streaming through XBox 360?

I'm not sure Windows Media Player reads .SMI files, which are the Korean subtitle files. VLC player does, though.

This is also fixed if you set your default unicode language to Korean. I have to do this for some Korean video games as the fonts aren't coded properly and a few ingame boxes might show up as gibberish.

I use convertXtoDVD to add subs to movies and it works quite well. I have also had the gibberish problem so thanks to Kryten for the info.

Try searching naver. I needed subs for Scrubs and gom was good up to a point..but around season 4-5 it started to fall apart. I found a site (some random blog) that had subs for all the seasons of scrubs put together quite nicely.
I think the word I searched with was 자막 but I can't recall right off.
