Here's one way:
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45W8krMTS1WitWJVvIFk45GhsZghqGlvoGpvqGlpQmY65Ofl5KfB1GYWJSZCGa5gUknMyOIFiMLfQMzoBZziJYAoDqI0Y55JRn5eZXI1lgaG0L0GOobWAL1WECMcEotyskEWhMLAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Input = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Input", type text}}),
Labels = {"Name","Gender","ID","Birth","City"},
#"Label Column" = List.Repeat(Labels,Table.RowCount(#"Changed Type")/5),
#"Add Label Column" = Table.FromColumns(
Table.ToColumns(#"Changed Type") &
{#"Label Column"}, Table.ColumnNames(#"Changed Type") & {"Result"}),
#"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Add Label Column",{{"Result", type text}})
in
#"Changed Type1"
