The sed command elixir_sinari provided would work on the strings you showed, underscore or not. The real problem is probably that you are not showing us any real data but some small sample of it. This is just stealing everybodies time.
Having said this: elixir_sinari's solution presumes the string to be changed being at the beginning of the line. This is based on the evidence you showed: the strings being at the beginning of the lines. My suspicion is that the strings are anywhere in the file, not just at the beginning of the line and therefore elixir_sinaris command won't work.
So either you present what you really see, not just an arbitrary misleading part of it, or you adapt elixir_sinaris solution to your requirements yourself.
I hope this helps.
