The fact that you own a K-1 tells me that you are prepared to spend a bit of money for a tool that is right for the job and a joy to use.
Hence, I would recommend the
Cactus V6II. It will allow you to remote control the power level of your Yongnuo flash and also remote control the zoom setting of your Yongnuo flash.
Furthermore, the Cactus V6II supports HSS with Pentax cameras and any supported flash. Luckily, it seems your Yongnuo flash is capable of HSS and is supported by the V6II. Hence you would be able to use off-camera HSS flash. And all that without the limitations of optical triggering.
Of course there is cheaper gear, but once you have enjoyed full control over the power and zoom settings of four groups of off-camera flashes, you will not want to go back to simple triggers that merely allow you to fire flashes, potentially with very limited group control.
