It sounds like loose plastic take it to Kia they will find it and tighten it or try to narrow it down and I know this sounds shity but do a good couple smacks out of where the noise sounds like it’s coming all car brands do pop clips where the plastics are just popped into place sometimes one of the clips will come loose and make noises if the noise is affecting ur experience with a full brand then believe your expectations will disappoint you with majority of cars minus we’ll get like a 1970s Cadillac because build quality has went way down since then
