As the pre-flop raiser in a multiway low drawish flop you'll almost always have the range advantage, but the pre-flop callers hold most of the draws. In this situation, most overpairs, in particular the combo's that don't contain a blocker to the (backdoor) flush draw, benefit a lot from equity denial. For that reason, I think c-betting quite large should at least be considered. Check-raising also looks nice, but because the stack to pot ratio is already so low I would probably just shove over the top. If we check/shove the flop I think we feel relatively comfortable with getting folds or calls.

As played, the king on the turn feels very awkward, but checking just turns our hand face-up and we're close to pot committed anyway. On average the card should be better for our range so maybe we even get some better hands to fold. I would've preferred getting the money in on the flop but shoving the turn doesn't feel that bad.

Overall I think you played very good and I would've taken a similar line. Playing the overpair passively in a multiway pot on a very passive table is probably also perfectly fine, but I think this was the perfect spot to get aggressive with this specific holding.
