If you just desire it to be a line break, use the code for the String you are using in the application. Json are "data-only" for transfer, so they should not have any formatting.

IF the data is formatted, is directly as it should be used:

Example:

{"MyVarName":"Sentence1\nSentence2\nSentence3"}

Then on lets say a javascript (using ajax for simplicity)

$.ajax({
        dataType: "json",
        url: url,
        success: function(output){
            alert(output["MyVarName"]);
        }
    });

Edit:

if you run the example, you will see the correct result.

The following will provide the correct results: "About": "Sentence1.\nSentence2.\nSentence3", if you are using another system, you need to writte the correct line break. meaning that in HTML the linebreak is </br>, in javascript it is \nu.s.f. check the line break needed then append in the position desired.
