"Choi Deok-hui is the best neurosurgeon in the world. In the past, he had a pupil named Jung Se-ok. She was a promising and gifted doctor, but Deok-hui had mixed feelings about her. Then, during an operation, he permanently kicked her out of his operating room. Even though Se-ok was once known as a genius doctor, she now works as a shadow doctor in an illegal operating room. Somehow, she meets her ex-teacher, Deok-hui, again. He was the one who kicked her to the bottom. These two crazy but gifted neurosurgeons confront each other and grow through that. There are also people around Se-ok. Han Hyeon-ho is an anesthesiologist who feels sorry for her, and Seo Yeong-ju always stays by her."

These all have edited "soft" English captions; that is, English subtitles are part of the MKV files and the subtitles can be enabled or disabled as you wish.

I downloaded the source videos named like "Hyper.Knife.S01E01.1080p.DSNP.WEB-DL.H264.DDP5.1-ADWeb.mkv" and obtained Disney's English subtitles elsewhere. Then I...
- Used Subtitle Edit (by Nikolaj Lynge Olsson) to find and fix all flagged issues
- Added 0.7 second to each subtitle (where possible) to allow more time to read them and adjusted words/minute to at least 280
- "Softened" all subtitled profanity (bastard --> jerk, damn --> darn, bitch --> witch etc.)
- Corrected commonly-found typos, converted many word pairs into common English contractions, and brought together sentence fragments
- Converted any ALL CAPS subtitles, used for media and signs, to salmon or yellow respectively, and changed flashback sections to teal
- Used Handbrake to create new MKV files using my subtitles
