Abstract Disclosed are a method for partitioning a block and a decoding device. A method for decoding an image comprises the steps of: partitioning one prediction unit, in which an intra prediction is performed in a predetermined intra prediction mode, into a plurality of transform units; and performing the intra prediction for each of the plurality of the transform units on the basis of the predetermined intra prediction mode. Thus, the invention increases the image encoding efficiency.
