ohhh wait there's something else I forgot about. I think I'm just spoiled by Retina res as an Apple display with thunderbolt was also not up to my expectations. I didn't check if the Television: Yes changes though.

I did try that script but haven't seen much of an improvement afterwards and I removed it. There is a way around it that you can find here. This is long standing bug that Apple refuses to fix and that is not simple to work around. If it does it is sending the color to your display not in RGB but in YCbCr space instead of RGB. Look for the monitor in Graphics/Displays. Run a system report from the apple menu About this mac. That said - and really, I should have thought of this to begin with - if we are to assume that the MacBook is indeed outputting at native resolution, and if the only adverse side effect is specific to text, then LCD font smoothing might be the culprit.

LG WIDE MONITOR MACBOOK 2015 1080P
(The TV itself still reported that it was receiving a resolution of 1080p from the iMac.) resulting in fuzzy text, much as the OP described. Back when I was trying to get my iMac to output at 4K, (or at least 1440p) I found several tools which pretended to change the output resolution to 4K, but all they really did was downscale everything. The OP specifically stated that he installed additional software from LG, so my first instinct was (perhaps incorrectly) to discount the display preferences report entirely, as I had learned through my own experimentation that third party software can fool the OS into thinking something that is not true. If display preferences and system information are both reporting the native resolution, I'm inclined to assume that the OS at least thinks it's operating at that resolution. You'll probably have to get a newer Mac to support the native resolution of the LG.
