Abstract: A liquid crystal display device (LCD) which applies a high voltage for carrying out a bend transition of an optically compensated birefringence (OCB) liquid crystal as a reset voltage to a common electrode of the OCB liquid crystal in the LCD having an OCB mode, and a method of driving the same are provided. In the OCB mode LCD, a voltage of a DC-DC converter is applied to a common electrode to reset the OCB liquid crystal at an initial stage of every frame or before applying data to each pixel. In addition, when one frame is divided into red, green and blue fields, and sequentially driven, a voltage of the DC-DC converter is applied to the common electrode to reset the OCB liquid crystal before each field begins. The DC-DC converter applies a voltage of 15V to 30V to the common electrode. An optical transmittance of the liquid crystal at the time of reset becomes zero (black state). Accordingly, a blurring effect can be removed while a reset time can be decreased, thereby increasing the brightness.
