Disclosed herein are a method for manufacturing a graphene transparent electrode and a graphene transparent electrode manufactured by the method. The method includes: providing a graphene oxide solution: forming a metal thin film on a glass substrate; coating the graphene oxide solution on the metal thin film, followed by drying; primarily reducing the thus obtained graphene oxide by using a reducing agent, to obtain reduced graphene oxide; secondarily reducing the reduced graphene oxide by heat treatment under the inert atmosphere, to form a reduced layer; compressing a transparent film on the reduced layer; and etching the metal film by an etching solution. The method enables a graphene transparent electrode having economical feasibility and excellent electric conductivity to be manufactured.
