With the returning of USA presence in the Asia Pacific area，maritime disputes arise as the focus and a hindering element in China’s relationship with its neighboring countries. As a close neighbor of China，ROK raised Maritime Power Strategy back in the year of 2000，and ever since has been in diligent dedication to the expansion of its maritime rights and interests，which has henceforth intensified competition and conflicts between China and ROK concerning maritime rights and interests issues. Disputes and conflicts related are a problem both China and ROK have to face now. Appropriate and efficient solution is crucial to the general development of the relationship between the two countries. With the strategic cooperative partnership ever increasingly deepened between them，both should make continuous efforts to consolidate the positive cooperation based on common interests，and attach adequate importance to the “negative cooperation” concerning conflicting benefits of issues including maritime rights and interests.
