I have a string like this
"\u041a\u043b\u0443\u0431 Test";

It was decoded by json\_encode(), the original string was "Клуб Test" in russian.
when I put it to js like 

alert("\u041a\u043b\u0443\u0431 Test"); 

I get correct displaying, like on the screen. So js 
in some way poperly decodes it to normal view.
The question is how can I do the same thing in php, is there any built in method?

THE ANSWER IS:
$json_in = '{"testKey":"\u041a\u043b\u0443\u0431 Test"}';
$json_out = json_decode($json_in, true);
or
Convert  "\u041a\u043b\u0443\u0431" to  "&#x041a;&#x043b;&#x0443;&#x0431;" 
and perform html_entity_decode($str, null, 'UTF-8');

```
