Abstract
The present invention provides an image encoding method and an image decoding method. The image encoding method of the present invention comprises: a first dividing step of dividing a current image into a plurality of blocks; and a second dividing step of dividing, into a plurality of sub blocks, a block, which is to be divided and includes a boundary of the current image, among the plurality of blocks, wherein the second dividing step is recursively performed by setting a sub block including the boundary of the current images as the block to be divided, until the sub block including the boundary of the current image does not exist among the sub blocks.
