A method for receiving streaming service data in a user equipment (UE) in a mobile communication network is provided. The method includes receiving streaming service data from a first access router (AR) through a first transmission control protocol (TCP) session in a state that a UE establishes the first TCP session with a corresponding node (CN); being allocated a second IP address which is different from the first IP address from a second AR which is different from the first AR if the UE hands over to the second AR while receiving the streaming service data; establishing a second TCP session which is different from the first TCP session with the CN using the second IP address; switching from the first TCP session to the second TCP session; and receiving the streaming service data from the CN through the second TCP session.
