A decoding device includes a decoding unit that decodes an information data string including an error-correction parity for each interleaved data string obtained by interleaving the information data string for each symbol to generate a decoded data string; an error-correcting decoding unit that interleaves the decoded data string to perform error-correcting decoding, de-interleaves the interleaved decoded data strings after error-correcting decoding when all errors in the decoded data strings are corrected, and generates a decoded data string after error correction when errors are remained; and an event error-correcting unit that corrects data in the decoded data string for the merge section when an error-corrected portion in the decoded data string obtained by comparing the decoded data string and the decoded data string after error correction is in an event information string indicative of a merge section in the decoded data string.
