Kotlin's REPL println not printing to new line, instead prints everything to same line

Question

I'm using the Kotlin REPL from Intellij Idea.

When I type this:

println("line 1 ")
println("line 2 ")
 
print("same ")
print("line")

I expect this output:

"line 1 " 
"line 2 "
"same line"

But instead I get:

"line 1 line 2 same line"

Why?

I tried this in Intellij `2019.2.4` and I'm getting the expected result as output though — Madhu Bhat, Jul 11 '20 at 05:37
@MadhuBhat do you remember changing any setting? I'm using Open JDK 14.0.1 — C. Rib, Jul 11 '20 at 19:24

I was able to replicate this in my version of IntelliJ as well (2020.1.1). This seems to be a pretty old bug in IntelliJ. While it is listed on a backlog, I am not sure what that means in terms of priority for a fix.
