The present disclosure provides method and apparatus for motion field storage in video coding. An exemplary method includes: determining whether a first uni-prediction motion vector for a first partition of a block and a second uni-prediction motion vector for a second partition of the block are from a same reference picture list; and in response to the first uni-prediction motion vector and the second uni-prediction motion vector being determined to be from the same reference picture list, storing, in a motion field of the block, one of the first uni-prediction motion vector and the second uni-prediction motion vector for a subblock located in a bi-predicted area of the block.
