Protesters hold pictures of the remaining 21 South Koreans in Afghanistan during a rally demanding negotiations between the U.S. government and the Taliban for the safe return of the hostages in Afghanistan, near the U.S. embassy in Seoul, August 3, 2007. A South Korean delegation arrived on Thursday in the Afghan province where 21 Koreans are held hostage in an attempt to hold direct talks with Taliban kidnappers and peacefully end the two-week ordeal.
