Disclosed is a video signal processing method comprising the steps of: acquiring a merge index which indicates a candidate for prediction of a current block among a plurality of candidates for the prediction of the current block, which are included in a merge candidate list; acquiring motion information of the current block on the basis of motion information corresponding to the candidate indicated by the merge index; when the motion information of the current block includes a plurality of motion vectors corresponding to a list of different reference pictures, comparing picture order count (POC) differences between each of the reference pictures corresponding to the plurality of motion vectors and the current picture including the current block; correcting the plurality of motion vectors on the basis of a result of the comparison; and reconstructing the current block on the basis of the plurality of corrected motion vectors.
