The LG tv, like most "smart TVs", cannot handle non-text subtitles. DVD and Bluray subtitles are graphic images. What you want requires either a better player, or searching internet for external subtitles and converting them, OR extracting the existing subtitles and running through a text-recognition program and hoping it gets them right.

The last process requires knowledge of what operating system you're using, to suggest possible tools.

I've looking for it too, but I need Smart TV to play on my Playstation. Does anybody know which TV will be the best for games?

"Best for games" is probably not a "smart" TV.
