Is there a good website for torrents of western movies in English (American, British, etc.) with Korean subtitltes? I assume such a site would be in Korean, but that's okay.

The problem with that is timing the subtitles--or do they somehow sync automatically?

regardless of the size of the file, unless there has been extra time added or removed at the beginning the timing should be fine.
When you search on gom or cineast you'll actually find multiple versions of the subtitles and more often than not you can match one of the subtitles to the version you've downloaded. They'll include the filename in the info page of the subtitle (at least gom does)

I've downloaded all the subs for the first few seasons of scrubs and they're all for 175MB versions of the show, but the versions I have are 266mb versions, there is no timing issue.

as long as you get the right sub file to match the avi then they should sync automatically...for example if your movie is a [DVDRip.XViD-PUKKA], get the sub file that also says it's PUKKA.

I've never been able to get those damn subtitle files to run whenever I've torrented movies. I use AVI and I've read instructions, but I still can't figure out how to do it.

make sure the subtitle file and the movie file have the exact same name. open the movie in vlc or gom and it should open automatically.

With VLC they will load automatically, but getting Hangul encoding to work right is a REAL bitch. Try http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?p=5476974

Use Gom Player to play your movies and just drag and drop the subtitle file into the open GOM Player window whilst it is playing your movie.

Additionally, in order to get hangul script to display correctly you need to change the font to Malgun Gothic in Preferences.
