Abstract

A liquid crystal display according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes: a first substrate; a first subpixel electrode positioned on the first substrate and configured to receive a first voltage; a second subpixel electrode positioned on the first substrate and configured to receive a second voltage; an insulating layer positioned between the first subpixel electrode and the second subpixel electrode; a second substrate facing the first substrate; and a common electrode positioned on the second substrate. A portion of the first subpixel electrode and a portion of the second subpixel electrode overlap each other with the insulating layer interposed therebetween, and a difference between the first voltage and a common voltage is larger than a difference between the second voltage and the common voltage.
