A method of forming a metal line in a semiconductor device including forming an inter-metal dielectric (IMD) layer on the semiconductor substrate including the predetermined pattern, planarizing the IMD layer through a first CMP process, and patterning a via hole on the planarized substrate. The method further includes depositing a barrier metal layer in the via hole, filling a refractory metal in an upper part of the barrier metal layer, planarizing the substrate filled with the refractory metal by performing a second CMP process, forming a refractory metal oxide layer by oxidizing a residual refractory metal region created by the second CMP process, and forming a refractory metal plug by removing the refractory metal oxide layer through a third CMP process.
