The inventive concepts provides a liquid crystal display having advantages of being capable of simplifying a manufacturing method thereof and minimizing damage to internal components therein by using a bottom chassis in which a flange unit and a receiver of a backlight unit are separated from each other. In accordance with the inventive concepts, the bottom chassis is formed in such a shape so as to be assembled and disassembled. Accordingly, it is possible to securely couple the flange unit to any necessary portions of the receiver, thereby reducing an effort and cost for mold development. Further, a gap between the receiver and the flange unit is formed to provide a predetermined degree of flexibility. Therefore, when the display device is assembled, deformation of the entire bottom chassis caused by deformation of the flange unit may be prevented.
