    Abstract: In a flexible display device including flexibility and toughness, and a method of manufacturing the flexible display device, the flexible display device includes a glass substrate, a flexible substrate and a display unit which are sequentially stacked, and the flexible display device has a structure wherein a surface area of the flexible substrate is larger than a surface area of the glass substrate. A volume of the device may be significantly reduced for convenience of portability since a flexible area where the glass substrate is not located may be folded or rolled. Also, a stable circuit connection may be guaranteed since the driving chip is installed on a hard area which does not go through a heating process in order to separate the glass substrate and the flexible substrate during the manufacturing process.
