Claim:
1. A display unit comprising: a display section including a light-emitting device and a pixel circuit in each pixel; and a drive section configured to drive the pixel circuit, based on an image signal, wherein the pixel circuit includes the drive section performs, on all pixel rows, correction that allows a gate-source voltage of the drive transistor to be brought close to a threshold voltage of the drive transistor, and then performs, on all pixel rows, writing of the signal voltage corresponding to the image signal to gates of the drive transistors, the drive section performs scanning for the correction at shorter intervals than one horizontal period, the drive section performs the correction and the writing to keep an nth period in which the light-emitting device emits light in an nth frame and an n+1th period in which the light-emitting device emits light in an n+1th frame from overlapping, and to have a black period in which black is displayed on an entirety of the display section, and during the black period for a given frame, the drive section performs the correction for the given frame for at least a first pixel row, and performs the writing for the given frame for at least a second pixel row.
