Disconnect the battery for about 5 min and then try it. Should work after that.

The hold flashing light means the transmission is locked in a perticular gear, so to disengage it press the button just below the shifter knob on the left side of the shifter.

If this does not work disconnecting battery will NOT solve your problem .you will have to purchase a transmission computer box located under drivers side of dashboard.Take the one with you to the junk yard to match it up by the #s on the box. Should run about $ 100.00,at Kia $950.00.
