PURPOSE: A display device and driving method thereof is provided, which is smaller in size with a smaller frame area by reducing the number of compensating lines as standby lines and capable of reducing degradation of a display quality by preventing a cross capacitance generated at an intersection of the compensating line and a source line on a signal input terminal section side, and a driving method thereof. CONSTITUTION: A display device, comprising: a plurality of gate lines(111) and a plurality of source lines(110) arranged in a matrix; a compensating line provided along a termination section on an opposite side of a signal input terminal section of the plurality of source lines(110), arranged so as to cross the plurality of source lines(110); a source driver, which is provided on the signal input terminal section side of the plurality of source lines(110), including(a) a normal output section for supplying a display data signal to the source line, and (b) a compensating output section for supplying a display data signal to the compensating line; and control means for controlling the source driver so that the compensating output section outputs the data signal corresponding to a burned-out source line.
