PURPOSE: A dye-sensitized solar cell module and a manufacturing method thereof are provided to prevent electrode corrosion according to electrolyte penetration by forming a buffer layer in which a space between a fluoride-doped tin oxide glass substrate and a collector electrode is filled with a conductive material. CONSTITUTION: A buffer layer formed between an encapsulation material made of resin and an FTO(Fluoride-doped Tin Oxide) glass material(110) for a counter electrode is filled with a conductive material. A counter electrode substrate(100) is manufactured by attaching the encapsulation material and the FTO glass material for the counter electrode. A buffer layer formed between the encapsulation material made of resin and an FTO glass material(210) for an operating electrode is filled with the conductive material. An operating electrode substrate(200) is manufactured by attaching the encapsulation material and the FTO glass material for the operating electrode. An electrolyte is injected into the counter electrode substrate and the operating electrode substrate.
