The Purpose of this paper is to identify the definition, strategy and features of China’s Military Diplomacy(or Defense Diplomacy) after the Cold War focused on the Korean Peninsula, and to provide an implication for the ROK’s Military Diplomacy. Facing the situation of “Chonan warship” attack by North Korea, it became evident that China has an ultimate key role to solve the Korean Problem in a appropriate way. But it seems that South Korea failed to catch an real intention of china’s Security Policy how to deal with the issue “North Korean problem”. In this sense the subtle analysis on the China’s Military Diplomacy could make it possible to evaluate the current situation on a more balanced basis connected with a china’s diplomatic rhetoric, and to draw a grand map how the china’s national strategy looks like. The Conclusions can be summarized as follows; Firstly, objectives of china’s military are to shape the international security environment, to protect Sovereignty issues and to enhance PLA(People’s Liberation Army) modernization. Secondly, the Military Diplomacy is put into practice based on the geopolitical strategy, which can be considered as an extension of the concept of united front operations divided into struggle, cooperation and coopting. Therefore it is necessary for china’s military diplomacy to cooperate with the North Korea, to coopt South Korea, in order to struggle against the United States. Thirdly, the main efforts of china’s military diplomacy for the korean peninsula lie in the accomplishment of ‘Stability’ and management of the ‘Status Quo’ in this Region.
