Original Abstract Submitted

An image decoding method performed by a decoding device according to the present document comprises the steps of: deriving a context model for a sign flag of a current residual coefficient of a current block; and decoding the sign flag on the basis of the context model, wherein the context model for the sign flag is derived on the basis of a sign flag of a residual coefficient decoded before the current residual coefficient in the current block.
