The utility plugin didn't work for me, but the other solution with the extra subtitle did the trick.
Here is what you have to do in order to get it working on your kobo device:
1. Install necessary tools in Calibre
Open Calibre, go to Preferences -> Advanced -> Plugins.
Click Get new plugins and install Count Pages.
Restart Calibre.
2. Configure "Count Pages" Plugin
Go back to Preferences -> Plugins.
Select the Count Pages plugin and click Customize plugin.
Set up a custom column to store page counts: #pages (select integers)
3. Customize Kobo Driver Settings
Connect your Kobo e-reader via USB.
Go to Preferences -> Plugins -> Device Interface Plugins.
Select the KoboTouch or KoboTouchExtended driver and click Customize plugin.
In the Metadata tab, you can configure how information is sent to the device.
You can set the Subtitle field to use the custom column you created to display the page count: {#pages} pages
4. Update Metadata and Send to Device
Select the books in your library.
Click the arrow by the Count Pages button and choose Estimate page/word counts.
Send the books to your Kobo. The library view on the Kobo should now show the page count in the subtitle field. You have to update metadata on your kobo as well.
Thank you everybody.
