1. A method for resetting a state of charge (SOC) of a battery in a hybrid vehicle, the method comprising:

  • calculating a first SOC value of the battery after the hybrid vehicle starts;

    calculating a second SOC value of the battery using an open circuit voltage (OCV) of the battery;

    comparing the second SOC value of the battery with a third SOC value for vehicle start-up, resetting an SOC value of a battery management system (BMS) to the third SOC value when the second SOC value of the battery is smaller than the third SOC value, and resetting the SOC value of the battery management system (BMS) to the second SOC value of the battery when the second SOC value of the battery is larger than the third SOC value;

    transmitting a charging request bit to a vehicle controller in order to charge a fourth SOC value of the battery that is not yet reset when the SOC value of the battery management system (BMS) is reset to the third SOC value; and

    confirming whether the charging of the fourth SOC value of the battery is completed.
