Abstract: A liquid crystal display is disclosed. In one aspect, the liquid crystal display includes first and second display substrates and a liquid crystal layer interposed therebetween. The liquid crystal display also includes a sealant interposed between the first and second display substrates and substantially sealing the liquid crystal layer. The sealant overlaps a gate metal portion formed on the first display substrate. The gate metal portion includes a first gate metal, a second gate metal opposing the first gate metal and spaced apart from the first gate metal, and a third gate metal spaced apart from the first and second gate metals. The gate metal portion further includes a first diode electrically connecting the first gate metal to the third gate metal and a second diode electrically connecting the second gate metal to the third gate metal.
