Disclosed is a method for decoding a video signal, including: generating a dequantized transform block by performing dequantization for a current block; acquiring an intra prediction mode of the current block; determining a secondary transform set applied to the current block among a plurality of secondary transform sets based on the intra prediction mode; deriving a transform kernel applied to the current block in the determined secondary transform set; and performing secondary transform for a top left specific area of the dequantized transform block by using the derived transform kernel, in which the plurality of secondary transform sets may include at least one mixed secondary transform set.
