"Time to Hunt," a crime drama, will be released through Netflix on April 10 instead of in movie theaters due to concerns over the coronavirus.

Announcing the Netflix release, Little Big Pictures said it had made the decision so people could watch in a safe environment.

"As threats of the coronavirus are continually pervading throughout the world, we sought a most effective and safe means for the film to reach a larger audience," it said.

The thriller will be released exclusively on the streaming site and will be available in 190 countries.

The movie was supposed to be released in Korean theaters on Feb. 26. But the release was postponed indefinitely due to the virus.

Directed by Yoon Sung-hyun, the movie follows a group of unfortunate youngsters who fall into poverty in a dystopian world. An ex-con Jun-seok(Lee Je-hoon) teams with his best friends ― Jang-ho (Ahn Jae-hong), and Ki-hoon (Choi Woo-shik) ― for a heist.

The film was invited to screen at this year's Berlin International Film Festival and became the first Korean film to screen for Berlinale Special Gala.
