Original Abstract Submitted

Provided are an image encoding/decoding method and device. An image decoding method performed by an image decoding device according to the present disclosure includes the steps of: determining a quantization parameter of the current block on the basis of whether color space conversion is applied to a residual sample of the current block; determining a transform coefficient of the current block on the basis of the quantization parameter; determining the residual sample of the current block by using the transform coefficient; and resetting the value of the residual sample on the basis of whether the color space conversion is applied.
