A method of controlling intra prediction for decoding or encoding of a video sequence, is performed by at least one processor and includes identifying whether a first intra prediction mode of an above neighboring block of a prediction block is different than a second intra prediction mode of a left neighboring block of the prediction block. The method further includes, based on the first intra prediction mode being identified to be not different than the second intra prediction mode, obtaining a most probable mode (MPM) list including the first intra prediction mode, first immediate modes immediate to the first intra prediction mode and one among second immediate modes respectively immediate to the first immediate modes, and performing the intra prediction on multiple reference lines of the prediction block, using the obtained MPM list, the multiple reference lines being without a first reference line closest to the prediction block.
