The binding is in motion state map, not normal state map (the latter inherits the former), so try 'motion instead of 'normal. However, I'm not sure if `evil-lookup-func` is vastly useful. Probably it's better to remove this variable completely and let the user rebind "K" if (s)he prefers a different command. This should not be much more difficult.
