Disclosed are a method for deriving a temporal predictive motion vector, and an apparatus using the method. An image decoding method may comprise the steps of: determining whether or not a block to be predicted is brought into contact with a boundary of a largest coding unit (LCU); and determining whether or not a first call block is available according to whether or not the block to be predicted is brought into contact with the boundary of the LCU.
