You are probably asking about "Segment Status codes".

HK1 means "Holds Confirmed, 1 seat" - i.e. the reservation system, which was used to book your flights has obtained a seat booking confirmation from the airline.

Sometimes this may say HL - Holds waitlisted, if you have a baby travelling with you, you may also see NS code - means "No Seat"

Here is the list of codes with their types and explantaions as used in Galileo reservation system:
