Yes, it should disappear and the subscript "1" should appear. If it doesn't (and you see just an empty rectangle or nothing), you probably don't have the right font. Choose Times New Roman for your current font style (in the STYLE command or font in the MText editor).

When I add \ and finish editing the text, it disappears. What should I do?

It is not "U+2084" but "\U+2084". See also:

I would like to create the subscript of 4 using Unicode code. I browse on Google of what is the Unicode code of subscript of 4 and the answer is "U+2084". The font I'm using is Times New Roman. You said, I need to just type the Unicode code of subscript of 4 which is "U+2084" in the text of AutoCAD. Why nothing is happened? Help me please.

What about the other numbers beside one?
What its unicode codes are? What about tens, hundreds, thousands, and so on? |

I hadn't thought of Unicode characters. They work for this, with two drawbacks that I see, though they may well be worth the trouble: Not all fonts can deal with them; It's more complicated to edit them, such as to change from a subscript 1 to a subscript 2.

Just type it in the text - it will autoconvert to the subscript 1 (if you have the right font).

The subscript/superscript method is viable in most cases - just make sure you are using a font with the full Unicode character set (e.g. Arial Unicode or Times New Roman). Then e.g. the "subscript 1" is the Unicode character \U+2081.

So, what should I do? I can do the fraction by using stack, but I can't do the subscript. Or, I can do the subscrĂpt by using stack, but I can't do the fraction. You need to choose one of them.
