This paper describes a video exchange project between English classes in South Korea and in Japan. Korean and Japanese students worked in groups to make short videos in English which were then exchanged. After viewing their counterparts' videos, students e-mailed feedback to each other. This project was the third video exchange project between Korean and Japanese university students since 2001. However, it was the first time to try it with three universities together. Students from the different universities tried to compete with each other. It provided a better chance for students to improve their English. Most students expressed the importance of the video exchange project in developing their English proficiency and enabling them to use English in an international context. Many students agreed that the project was an educational, enjoyable and worthwhile experience.
