A method for decoding an image according to the present invention comprises the steps of: determining whether a second inverse transform is applied to a coding block including a plurality of sub-blocks; and applying the second inverse transform to at least one of the plurality of sub-blocks when it is determined that the second inverse transform is applied to the coding block. In this case, whether the second inverse transform is applied to the coding block may be determined by comparing the size of one of the plurality of sub-blocks with a threshold value.

determining whether a second inverse transform is applied to the coding block including the plurality of sub-blocks; and
applying the second inverse transform to at least one of the plurality of sub-blocks when it is determined to apply the second inverse transform to the coding block,

dividing a coding block into the plurality of sub-block either in a horizontal direction or a vertical direction;
determining whether a second transform is applied to the coding block including the plurality of sub-blocks; and
applying the second transform to at least one of the plurality of sub-blocks when it is determined to apply the second transform to the coding block,
wherein information indicating whether the coding block is divided into the plurality of sub-blocks or not is include in the compressed video data,
wherein whether the second transform is applied to the coding block or not is determined by comparing a size of one of the plurality of sub-blocks with a threshold value, and
