python code open(encoding='utf8') is not working

I have a json file and I want to open (read and write) them without displaying as unicode :

json file as below :

{"A":"\u0e16"}
{"B":"\u0e39"}
{"C":"\u0e43\u0e08\u0e27"}

I tried below code but is not working (still open as encoded unicode) :

with open("test.json",encoding='utf8') as in_data:
    for line in in_data:
        print(line)

Expected output :

{"A":"ณ"}
{"B":"คุ"}
{"C":"ของ"}

>Solution :

The file isn’t valid JSON, but is what’s called "JSON Lines Format" where each line is valid JSON. You also need to decode the JSON line to display it properly. The json.loads() function takes a string and decodes it as JSON:

import json

with open("test.json",encoding='utf8') as in_data:
    for line in in_data:
        print(json.loads(line))

Output:

{'A': 'ถ'}
{'B': 'ู'}
{'C': 'ใจว'}
