Parse JSON only at 1st level

I want my nested JSON to be parsed only at 1st level instead of parsing all the nested parts. I have below JSON:

{ "Name":Naman, 
"Age":25, 
"Address": 
    { "H.No":"23", 
      "Street_no":2, 
      "Area":"Model Town" },
"Country":"IND" 
}

 I want output like below:

Name | Age  | Address             | Country 
Naman  25     "H.No":"23",           IND  
              "Street_no":2,
              "Area":"Model Town"

I don't want to handle Address field separately as these are dynamic fields that are coming in from source.

I can't paste the raw JSON as it contains company data. I hope you get the idea what I am trying to achieve. JSON is dynamic and I just want to parse at 1st level. All the nested fields should come as it is without getting parsed.
