When I use "exiftool view" command then nordic characters "å, ä, ö" are not show correctly:
Artist                          : Matti Meikõlõinen
City                            : ─õnekoski
Location                        : ?ja
It should be look like this:
Artist                          : Matti Meikäläinen
City                            : Äänekoski
Location                        : Öja

Is there anyway that Exiftool can automatically show those characters correctly when using "exiftool view" command?

First, there is no such thing as an "exiftool view" command.

Second, the problem is entirely shell dependent.  Assuming you are using some type of Windows shell, FAQ 18 (https://exiftool.org/faq.html#Q18) may help.

Thanks that helped me to understand. Im Windows 10 user.

After this CMD will show nordic alphabets correctly automatically:
