How bypass NetworkOnMainThreadException on Kotlin

Hi i starting with kotlin, now Android Studio 3.0 support it, but i don't know how do a simple Network request in another thread...

in java is very easy

new Thread(new Runnable() {
    @Override
    public void run() {
        //Do dome Network Request

        runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                //Update UI
            }
        });
    }
}).start();

i know i can do a AsyncTask and blablabla... but i don't want that. I want a simple solution without creating extra classes and complex use case

Is this possible in Kotlin?

All of the same classes and methods from Java and the Android SDK are available in Kotlin, so you can just use the exact same thing. The formatting is a bit nicer because of support for SAM constructors among other things.

Thread({
    //Do some Network Request

    runOnUiThread({
        //Update UI
    })
}).start()
