Any vehicle can run with a blown head gasket. Question is, do you want to destroy the engine in your Kia? A sure way to do that is to drive it with a blown head gasket. By doing this you are allowing coolant to be mixed with the oil in the engine. Coolant is a horrible lubricant and is actually very corrosive. It will, in short order, destroy the bearings and all other moving parts in your engine.
