A notification method for informing a UE of an existence or absence of control information for an MBMS in a mobile communication system supporting the MBMS. In the method, the UE receives a notification indicator channel independently reporting the existence of the control information for the MBMS, confirms at least one notification indicator of the notification indicator channel, thereby confirming the existence of the control information relating to the requested MBMS. Further, a method is proposed, which can minimize an alarm due to other MBMSs.
