1. A method performed by a communication device in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
transmitting a radio resource control (RRC) connection release request message including information about at least one preferred target Internet of things (IoT) mode;
receiving a RRC connection release message including information about a target IoT mode based on the RRC connection release request message; and
releasing an RRC connection based on the RRC connection release message,
wherein the communication device switches from a source IoT mode to the target IoT mode based on the information about the target IoT mode and the target IoT mode is determined based on the information about the at least one preferred target IoT mode.
