serialize django model queryset with serializers.serialize() function

How can I return JSON response of model queryset from a view using django serializer ?

from django.core import serializers
from django.http.response import JsonResponse


def some_view(request):
    qs = SomeModel.objects.all()
    serialized_obj = serializers.serialize('json', qs)
    return JsonResponse(serialized_obj, safe=False)

According to code snippet, the view producess a non-json response.

This can be easily done by using python format.

serialized_obj = serializers.serialize('python', qs)

Unfortunately, Django serializer doc doesn't mention anything about it, but the source code does
