Abstract
A foldable display device and a method of operating the same are disclosed. In one aspect, the foldable display device includes a flexible display panel that is foldable and a heating element that provides heat to a folding portion of the flexible display panel. According to some embodiments, the foldable display device can minimize or prevent exfoliation of a protection film from the folding portion of the flexible display panel, and thus, the quality of a product using the foldable display device can be stabilized.
