Disclose herein is a degassing apparatus for a pouch including a body part. The degassing apparatus can include a lower mold placed on a bottom surface of the body part, an upper mold configured to press a top surface of the body part placed on the lower mold, and a cooling member. At least one of the lower mold or the upper mold is cooled by the cooling member to cool an electrolyte injected into the body part when the body part contacts the lower or upper molds. A method for degassing a pouch can include seating a body part of the pouch on a lower mold, pressing the pouch with an upper mold, cooling a body part to lower the temperature of an electrolyte in an electrode assembly of the pouch, and suctioning a gas by inserting a gas inhaler into a gas pocket part.
