Kierkegaard's question is, how can we know the truth? What will enable us to know the truth? The truth is understood as being out there. It is something to be discovered - to be known. There is a need to search for it. Or else, we cannot know it. It does not or will not exist for us.
After we exert the effort to search for truth, for Kierkegaard, there is one thing essential to do in order to really know truth. This essential thing is what he calls subjectivity.
"we are not people choosing what we believe is true or not, but subjects who embodies our beliefs, we are what we believe in"
