The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for reducing inter-cell interference in a wireless communication system. The method for reducing inter-cell interference in a wireless communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention includes: a step in which a first terminal receives, from a first cell, scheduling information for the transmission of a first signal to a second cell; and a step in which the first terminal transmits the first signal to the second cell on the basis of the scheduling information. The scheduling information is provided by the first cell in the event an uplink or downlink transmission of the first cell is interfered with by an uplink or downlink transmission of the second cell. The first signal indicates a request for reducing the transmitting power of the second cell or of the second terminal served by the second cell.
