What needs to be done so that the Cyrillic alphabet is displayed normally?

Question

JSON

I received the project and I just can not understand what is the reason. The project is a symfony api backend. So this API returns json and if it contains Cyrillic, then it is returned in this form. That is, if I simply return a string in Cyrillic from the server, then it will return in this form.

The database also stores Cyrillic in this form.
Is this some kind of setting? Is there an encoding somewhere? Tell me how to make the Cyrillic alphabet display normally.

Answer 1

Answer 2
