A liquid crystal display according to an embodiment of the present invention provides a OCB liquid crystal display that can stably operate without breaking the bending alignment regardless of applied voltage. The display includes first and second alignment layers that are formed on the first and second substrates, respectively, and that horizontally align the liquid crystal layer. A normal data voltage is determined based on a first gamma curve representing luminance corresponding to external image information and impulsive data voltages are determined based on a second gamma curve representing a luminance that is lower than that of the first gamma curve. The normal data voltage and the impulsive data voltage are applied periodically and alternately. A bending alignment is obtained without experiencing asymmetric splay alignment by creating an energy difference between the energy needed for the alignment to transition to the twist alignment adjacent to the upper alignment layer and the energy needed for the alignment to transition to the twist alignment adjacent to the lower alignment layer.
