A method for forming a fine pattern using isotropic etching, includes the steps of forming an etching layer on a semiconductor substrate, and coating a photoresist layer on the etching layer, performing a lithography process with respect to the etching layer coated with the photoresist layer, and performing a first isotropic etching process with respect to the etching layer including a photoresist pattern formed through the lithography process, depositing a passivation layer on the etching layer including the photoresist pattern, and performing a second isotropic etching process with respect to the passivation layer. The second isotropic etching process is directly performed without removing the predetermined portion of the passivation layer.
