Setup request body, use array or List for [1,2,3]

JSONObject surveyPriceObject = new JSONObject();
surveyPriceObject.put("object", "new_subway_group");
surveyPriceObject.put("name", "Group 1");
surveyPriceObject.put("subways", Arrays.asList(1,2,3));

Convert response to JSONObject

If the response has type Response then

import net.minidev.json.JSONObject;
...
JSONObject object = res.jsonPath().getObject("", JSONObject.class);
System.out.println(object);

If the response has type String then

import io.restassured.path.json.JsonPath;
import net.minidev.json.JSONObject;
...
JSONObject object = JsonPath.from(res).getObject("", JSONObject.class);
System.out.println(object);

This is for Request body. I need to send above JSON payload inside request body. Previously I've used JSONObject surveyPriceObject = new JSONObject(); but how to use it for [1,2,3] construct?
