Claim 20:
21. A method of driving a display device including a plurality of pixel columns, each including a plurality of sub-pixels, the method comprising:
outputting a first color data voltage through a first data line in a first sub-period of a first horizontal period;
connecting a first sub-data line corresponding to a first pixel column among the plurality of pixel columns and the first data line during the first sub-period of the first horizontal period;
successively outputting a second color data voltage different from the first color data voltage through the first data line in each of a second sub-period of the first horizontal period and a first sub-period of a second horizontal period;
connecting a second sub-data line corresponding to a second pixel column among the plurality of pixel columns and the first data line during the second sub-period of the first horizontal period and the first sub-period of the second horizontal period;
outputting the first color data voltage through the first data line in the second sub-period of the second horizontal period; and
connecting the first sub-data line and the first data line during the second sub-period of the second horizontal period,
wherein a state in which the first data line and the second sub-data line are connected to each other is maintained during the second sub-period of the first horizontal period and the first sub-period of the second horizontal period.
