Disclosed is a method for polymerization that copolymerizes ethylene and alpha-olefin. The method includes the steps of: copolymerizing ethylene and alpha-olefin of reaction raw materials in presence of solvents, to produce a polymerization product in which low molecular weight compounds containing unreacted ethylene and alpha-olefin, the solvents, ethylene and alpha-olefin copolymers and ethylene and alpha-olefin oligomers; separating the unreacted ethylene and alpha-olefin contained in the polymerization product by distilling; separating the solvents and the low molecular weight compounds having lower molecular weight than the ethylene and alpha-olefin copolymer and contained in the polymerization product by distilling, to obtain pure polymerization product; and separating the low molecular weight oligomers from the solvents and the low molecular weight compounds previously separated by distilling to recover the solvents, and then reusing the recovered solvents as solvents for polymerization.
