A liquid crystal display in which liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal display have a uniformly bent alignment. The liquid crystal display includes a first substrate including wiring that intersects to define unit pixels, and a first electrode provided in each of the unit pixels; a second substrate opposing the first substrate and including a second electrode formed over an entire area of the second substrate, the first and second electrodes forming an electric field when a voltage is applied to the first and second electrodes; a liquid crystal layer formed by injecting liquid crystal material between the first and second substrates, the liquid crystal material having liquid crystal molecules that are horizontally oriented in one direction and increasingly bent as approaching an imaginary center plane, wherein the center plane is parallel and equidistant to the first and second substrates, when the electric field is formed between the first and second substrates, such that the liquid crystal molecules are symmetrical about the center plane; and a buffer electrode provided under the first electrode and extending past an edge of the first electrode at an area where orientation of the liquid crystal molecules begins in the unit pixel.
