The present invention relates to a plasma display apparatus and method of driving the same, wherein erroneous discharge, miss-discharge and abnormal discharge are prevented, dark room contrast is increased, and operational margin is widened. According to the plasma display apparatus and driving method thereof, a negative voltage is applied to a first electrode, and a positive voltage is applied to a second electrode, whereby wall charges of a positive polarity are accumulated on the first electrode and wall charges of a negative polarity are accumulated on the second electrode, within discharge cells during a pre-reset period. The discharge cells are then initialized using the wall charge distribution of the discharge cells during a reset period. |
