1. An image decoding method comprising:
when a current coding unit having a square shape includes a region that deviates from a lower boundary of an image, obtaining a first block and a second block by splitting the current coding unit in a horizontal direction;
when the first block includes a region that deviates from a right boundary of the image, splitting the first block in a vertical direction;
when the current coding unit includes neither the region that deviates from the lower boundary of the image nor the region that deviates from the right boundary of the image, obtaining, from a bitstream, split type information of the current coding unit and splitting the current coding unit into a plurality of coding units based on the split type information; and
decoding a coding unit that is no longer split among the plurality of coding units.
