KE = Korean Air (formerly known as Korean Air Lines or KAL) does have First, though First awards are available only through KE's own SkyPass mileage program and select partners (Delta not among them).
If you're on a KE First award, I'd say it's possible but unlikely, given what we know they do with Prestige Business Class awards.

For award tickets, no. Only paid tickets of a certain travel class. And you must be on a ticket that has no other flight options that day (earlier first or second flight) and forces the overnight connection (both flights KE).
