Recently, the importance of writing has increased in teaching English to speakers of other languages. However, the practice of teaching english writing in Korean colleges has been less effective due to; 1) lesson goals or curriculum emphasizing reading comprehension, and 2) the attitudes toward writing exercises. This study suggests peer collaboration as a possible alternative for solving this issue. This study was designed to investigate how peer collaboration works for writing exercises in reading comprehension classes. For research methodology, observation and the analysis of the researcher’s log and students’ final drafts were used. The findings of this study concluded that peer collaboration contributed to the fluency and the development of ideas in students’ writing. Therefore, peer collaboration in writing exercises could enhance Korean students’ writing fluency in reading comprehension class.
