     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     The invention now will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which various embodiments are shown. This invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms, and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art. Like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout. 
     It will be understood that when an element is referred to as being “on” another element, it can be directly on the other element or intervening elements may be present therebetween. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being “directly on” another element, there are no intervening elements present. It will be understood that when an element is referred to as being “connected” or “coupled” to another element, it can be directly connected or coupled to the another element or be indirectly connected or coupled to the another element with one or more intervening elements interposed therebetween. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being “directly connected” or “directly coupled” to another element, there are no intervening elements present. 
     It will be understood that, although the terms “first,” “second,” “third” etc. may be used herein to describe various elements, components, regions, layers and/or sections, these elements, components, regions, layers and/or sections should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element, component, region, layer or section from another element, component, region, layer or section. Thus, “a first element,” “component,” “region,” “layer” or “section” discussed below could be termed a second element, component, region, layer or section without departing from the teachings herein. 
     The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting. As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms, including “at least one,” unless the content clearly indicates otherwise. “Or” means “and/or.” As used herein, the term “and/or” includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. It will be further understood that the terms “comprises” and/or “comprising,” or “includes” and/or “including” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, regions, integers, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, regions, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof. 
     Furthermore, relative terms, such as “lower” or “bottom” and “upper” or “top,” may be used herein to describe one element&#39;s relationship to another elements as illustrated in the Figures. It will be understood that relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in addition to the orientation depicted in the Figures. For example, if the device in one of the figures is turned over, elements described as being on the “lower” side of other elements would then be oriented on “upper” sides of the other elements. The exemplary term “lower,” can therefore, encompasses both an orientation of “lower” and “upper,” depending on the particular orientation of the figure. Similarly, if the device in one of the figures is turned over, elements described as “below” or “beneath” other elements would then be oriented “above” the other elements. The exemplary terms “below” or “beneath” can, therefore, encompass both an orientation of above and below. 
     “About” or “approximately” as used herein is inclusive of the stated value and means within an acceptable range of deviation for the particular value as determined by one of ordinary skill in the art, considering the measurement in question and the error associated with measurement of the particular quantity (i.e., the limitations of the measurement system). 
     Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. It will be further understood that terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and the present disclosure, and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly so defined herein. 
     Exemplary embodiments are described herein with reference to cross section illustrations that are schematic illustrations of idealized embodiments. As such, variations from the shapes of the illustrations as a result, for example, of manufacturing techniques and/or tolerances, are to be expected. Thus, embodiments described herein should not be construed as limited to the particular shapes of regions as illustrated herein but are to include deviations in shapes that result, for example, from manufacturing. For example, a region illustrated or described as flat may, typically, have rough and/or nonlinear features. Moreover, sharp angles that are illustrated may be rounded. Thus, the regions illustrated in the figures are schematic in nature and their shapes are not intended to illustrate the precise shape of a region and are not intended to limit the scope of the present claims. 
     Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. 
       FIGS. 1A and 1B  are perspective views schematically illustrating a wearable device according to an embodiment of the disclosure. In  FIGS. 1A and 1B , an embodiment where the wearable device is a head mounted display device (“HMD”) is illustrated. 
     Referring to  FIGS. 1A and 1B , an embodiment of the wearable device or the HMD includes a body part  30 . 
     In such an embodiment, the HMD further includes a band  31  connected to the body part  30 . The band  31  allows a user to wear the body part  30  on a head thereof. The body part  30  has a structure in which a display device  40  is detachably mounted thereto. 
     The display device  40  may be, for example, a smart phone. However, in the embodiment of the disclosure, the display device  40  is not limited to the smart phone. In one alternative embodiment, for example, the display device  40  may be any one of electronic devices each having a display means, such as a tablet PC, an electronic book reader, a personal digital assistant (“PDA”), a portable multimedia player (“PMP”), and a camera. Hereinafter, for convenience of description, embodiments where the display device  40  is an organic light emitting display device will be described in detail. 
     When the display device  40  is mounted to the body part  30 , a connection part  41  of the display device  40  is electrically coupled to a connection part  32  of the body part  30 , and accordingly, communication between the body part  30  and the display device  40  may be performed. In an embodiment, although not shown in the drawings, the HMD may include at least one of a touch panel, a button, and a wheel key to control the display device  40 . 
     When the display device  40  is mounted in the HMD, the display device  40  may be driven in a second mode. When the display device  40  is separated from the HMD, the display device  40  may be driven in a first mode. When the display device  40  is mounted in the HMD, the driving mode of the display device  40  may be automatically changed to the second mode, or be changed to the second mode by a setting of the user. 
     In an embodiment, when the display device  40  is separated from the HMD, the driving mode of the display device  40  may be automatically changed to the first mode, or be changed to the first mode by a setting of the user. 
     The HMD includes lenses  20  corresponding to two eyes of the user. The lenses  20  may be set as fisheye lenses, wide-angle lenses, or the like to increase the field of view (“FOV”) of the user. 
     In a state where the display device  40  is fixed to the body part  30 , the user views the display device  40  via the lenses  20 , such that an effect as if the user views images displayed on a large-sized screen located at a certain distance therefrom is provided. 
     In such an embodiment, since the user views the display device  40  via the lenses  20 , an effective display unit is divided into a region having a high visibility and a region having a low visibility. In an embodiment, based on two eyes of the user, a central region may have a high visibility, and the other region may have a low visibility. 
     Thus, in an embodiment, when the display device  40  is driven in the second mode an image is displayed in only a partial region of the effective display unit to allow the user to view more vivid images. When the image is displayed in only the partial region of the effective display unit, a driving frequency may be increased, and accordingly, the display device  40  may display vivid images. In such an embodiment, a gate-off voltage is supplied to signal lines (scan lines, emission control lines, etc.) located in the other region except the partial region of the effective display unit, and accordingly, pixels located in the other region are set to be in a non-emission state. 
       FIG. 2  is a view illustrating a pixel region of a display device according to an embodiment of the disclosure. Hereinafter, for convenience of description, an embodiment where the display device is an organic light emitting display device will be described in detail. 
     Referring to  FIG. 2 , in such an embodiment, the organic light emitting display device includes pixel regions AA 1  and AA 2  and a peripheral region NA. In such an embodiment, the pixel regions AA 1  and AA 2  and the peripheral region NA may be defined on a substrate  50 . 
     A plurality of pixels PXL 1  and PXL 2  are located in the pixel regions AA 1  and AA 2 , and accordingly, a predetermined image is displayed in the pixel regions AA 1  and AA 2 . Therefore, the pixel regions AA 1  and AA 2  may define an effective display unit. 
     When the organic light emitting display device is driven in the first mode, as shown in  FIG. 3 , a predetermined image is displayed in a first pixel region AA 1  and a second pixel region AA 2 . 
     When the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, as shown in  FIG. 4 , a predetermined image is displayed in the first pixel region AA 1 . In an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, the image displayed in the first pixel region AA 1  may include two images, which are identical to or different from each other, and are displayed corresponding to two eyes of a user. In such an embodiment, the image displayed in the first pixel region AA 1  may be variously set corresponding to characteristics of the HMD, etc. 
     When the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, second pixels PXL 2  included in the second pixel region AA 2  are set to be in the non-emission state. In an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, a black screen image may be displayed in the second pixel region AA 2 . 
     In an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, a partial data signal corresponding to the first pixel region AA 1  may be supplied to the second pixel region AA 2 . Accordingly, in such an embodiment, the second pixels PXL 2  included in the second pixel region AA 2  may also be set to be in the non-emission state, based on a light emission control signal. In an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, the second pixels PXL 2  included in the second pixel region AA 2  may display a predetermined image by the partial data signal corresponding to the first pixel region AA 1 . That is, in an embodiment of the disclosure, the second pixel region AA 2  may be driven in various forms or manner during a period in which the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode. 
     In an embodiment, as shown in  FIG. 2 , a width of the first pixel region AA 1  may be equal to that of the second pixel region AA 2 , but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In one alternative embodiment, for example, the second pixel region AA 2  may have a shape of which width becomes narrower as the second pixel region AA 2  becomes more distant from the first pixel region AA 1 . 
     In an embodiment, the second pixel region AA 2  may have a width narrower than that of the first pixel region AA 1 . In such an embodiment, a number of second pixels PXL 2  arranged along a horizontal line of the second pixel region AA 2  may be smaller than that of first pixels PXL 1  arranged along a horizontal line of the first pixel region AA 1 . 
     In an embodiment of the disclosure, the substrate  50  may have one of various shapes such that the pixel regions AA 1  and AA 2  may be variously modified based on the shape of the substrate  50 . The substrate  50  may include or be made of an insulative material such as glass or resin. In an embodiment, the substrate  50  may include or be made of a material having flexibility to be bendable or foldable. The substrate  50  may have a single-layer structure or a multi-layer structure. 
     In an embodiment, components (e.g., drivers and lines) for driving the pixels PXL 1  and PXL 2  are disposed in the peripheral region NA. The pixels PXL 1  and PXL 2  may not be disposed in the peripheral region NA, and accordingly, the peripheral region NA may define a non-display region. The peripheral region NA is defined at the periphery of the pixel regions AA 1  and AA 2 , and may have a shape surrounding at least a part of the pixel regions AA 1  and AA 2 . 
     The pixel regions AA 1  and AA 2  include the first pixel region AA 1  and the second pixel region AA 2 . 
     The first pixel region AA 1  may have a size greater than a size of the second pixel region AA 2 . In one embodiment, for example, a length of the first pixel region AA 1  in a vertical direction is greater than a length of the second pixel region AA 2  in the vertical direction, as shown in  FIG. 2 . The first pixels PXL 1  are disposed in the first pixel region AA 1 . Each of the first pixels PXL 1  generate light with a predetermined luminance corresponding to a data signal applied thereto. 
     The second pixel region AA 2  is located at a side of the first pixel region AA 1 , and may have a smaller area than the first pixel region AA 1 . The second pixels PXL 2  are disposed in the second pixel region AA 2 . Each of the second pixels PXL 2  generate light with a predetermined luminance corresponding to a data signal applied thereto. 
     Each of the first pixels PXL 1  and the second pixels PXL 2  includes a driving transistor (not shown) and an organic light emitting diode (not shown). The driving transistor controls an amount of a current supplied to the organic light emitting diode, based on a data signal applied thereto. A gate electrode of the driving transistor is initialized to a voltage of an initialization power source before the driving transistor is supplied with the data signal. In addition, an anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode is initialized to a voltage of the initialization power source before the organic light emitting diode emits light. In an embodiment, the initialization power source is set to a voltage lower than the data signal. The voltage of the initialization power source is set in a way such that light is not emitted from the organic light emitting diode when the voltage of the initialization power source is supplied to the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode.

     In an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the first mode, as shown in  FIG. 6 , a predetermined image is displayed in a first pixel region AA 1 , a second pixel region AA 2  and a third pixel region AA 3 .

     In an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, a partial data signal corresponding to the first pixel region AA 1  may be supplied to the second pixel region AA 2  and the third pixel region AA 3 . Accordingly, in such an embodiment, the second pixels PXL 2  included in the second pixel region AA 2  and the third pixels PXL 3  included in the third pixel region AA 3  may be set to be in the non-emission state, based on a light emission control signal. In an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, the second pixels PXL 2  included in the second pixel region AA 2  and the third pixels PXL 3  included in the third pixel region AA 3  may display a predetermined image by the partial data signal corresponding to the first pixel region AA 1 . That is, in an embodiment of the disclosure, the second pixel region AA 2  and the third pixel region AA 3  may be driven in various forms or manner during a period in which the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode. 
     Components (e.g., drivers and lines) for driving the pixels PXL 1 , PXL 2 , and PXL 3  may be disposed in the peripheral region NA.

     The second pixels PXL 2  are arranged to be coupled to third scan lines S 31  and S 32 , second emission control lines E 21  and E 22 , and data lines D 1  to Dm. The second pixels PXL 2  are selected or selectively activated when a third scan signal is supplied to the third scan lines S 31  and S 32  to be supplied with a data signal supplied from the data lines D 1  to Dm. An organic light emitting diode included in each of the second pixels PXL 2  is initialized to a voltage of an initialization power source Vint when the third scan signal is supplied.

     The second scan driver  200  supplies k second scan signals (k is a natural number) to each of the second scan lines S 21  to S 2   n  every predetermined period (e.g., during each frame period) when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the first mode, and the second scan driver  200  supplies j second scan signals (j is a natural number greater than k) to each of the second scan lines S 21  to S 2   n  every predetermined period when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode.

       FIG. 9  is a view illustrating an embodiment of the first pixel shown in  FIG. 8 . For convenience of description, a first pixel PXL 1  coupled to an m-th data line Dm (m is a natural number) and an i-th first scan line S 1   i  is illustrated in  FIG. 9 . 
     Referring to  FIG. 9 , in an embodiment, the first pixel PXL 1  includes an organic light emitting diode OLED, a pixel circuit PC for controlling the amount of the current supplied to the organic light emitting diode OLED, and a first transistor T 1 . 
     An anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED is coupled to the pixel circuit PC, and a cathode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED is coupled to a second power source ELVSS. The organic light emitting diode OLED generates light with a predetermined luminance corresponding to the amount of the current supplied from the pixel circuit PC. A first power source ELVDD may be set to have a voltage higher than that of the second power source ELVSS such that current is allowed to flow through the organic light emitting diode OLED. 
     The first transistor T 1  is coupled between the initialization power source Vint and the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED. In such an embodiment, a gate electrode of the first transistor T 1  is coupled to an i-th second scan line S 2   i . The first transistor T 1  is turned on when the second scan signal is supplied to the i-th second scan line S 2   i  to supply the voltage of the initialization power source Vint to the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED. 
     When the voltage of the initialization power source Vint is supplied to the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED, a parasitic capacitor (hereinafter, referred to as an “organic capacitor” Coled) of the organic light emitting diode OLED is discharged. When the organic capacitor Coled is discharged, the black expression ability of the organic light emitting diode is enhanced. 
     In such an embodiment, the organic capacitor Coled charges a predetermined voltage corresponding to a current supplied from the pixel circuit PC during a previous frame period. When the organic capacitor Coled is charged, light may be easily emitted from the organic light emitting diode OLED by even a low current. 
     In such an embodiment, a black data signal may be supplied to the pixel circuit PC in a current frame period. When the black data signal is supplied, the pixel circuit PC ideally supplies no current to the organic light emitting diode OLED. However, the pixel circuit PC including transistors may supply a leakage current to the organic light emitting diode OLED even when the black data signal is supplied. When a leakage current is supplied to the organic light emitting diode OLED, if the organic capacitor Coled is in a charged state, the organic light emitting diode OLED may minutely emit light, and accordingly, the black expression ability of the organic light emitting diode OLED is degraded. 
     In an embodiment of the disclosure, when the organic capacitor Coled is discharged by the voltage of the initialization power source Vint, the organic light emitting diode OLED is set to be in the non-emission state even when a leakage current is supplied. That is, in such an embodiment of the disclosure, the initialization power source Vint is supplied to the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED, such that the black expression ability of the organic light emitting diode OLED may be enhanced. 
     The pixel circuit PC further includes a driving transistor MD, second to sixth transistors T 2  to T 6 , and a storage capacitor Cst. 
     In an embodiment, as shown in  FIG. 9 , a first electrode of the driving transistor MD is coupled to the first power source ELVDD via the fifth transistor T 5 , and a second electrode of the driving transistor MD is coupled to the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED via the sixth transistor T 6 . In such an embodiment, a gate electrode of the driving transistor MD is coupled to a first node N 1 . The driving transistor MD controls the amount of the current flowing from the first power source ELVDD to the second power source ELVSS via the organic light emitting diode OLED, based on a voltage of the first node N 1 . 
     The second transistor T 2  is coupled between the data line Dm and the first electrode of the driving transistor MD. In an embodiment, a gate electrode of the second transistor T 2  is coupled to the i-th first scan line S 1   i . The second transistor T 2  is turned on when the first scan signal is supplied to the i-th first scan line S 1   i  to allow the data line Dm and the first electrode of the driving transistor MD to be electrically coupled to each other. 
     The third transistor T 3  is coupled between the second electrode of the driving transistor MD and the first node N 1 . In an embodiment, a gate electrode of the third transistor T 3  is coupled to the i-th first scan line S 1   i . The third transistor T 3  is turned on when the first scan signal is supplied to the i-th first scan line to allow the second electrode of the driving transistor MD and the first node N 1  to be electrically coupled to each other. Therefore, when the third transistor T 3  is turned on, the driving transistor MD is diode-coupled. 
     The fourth transistor T 4  is coupled between the first node N 1  and the initialization power source Vint. In an embodiment, a gate electrode of the fourth transistor T 4  is coupled to an (i−1)-th first scan line S 1   i− 1. The fourth transistor T 4  is turned on when the first scan signal is supplied to the (i−1)-th first scan line S 1   i− 1 to supply the voltage of the initialization power source Vint to the first node N 1 . 
     The fifth transistor T 5  is coupled between the first power source ELVDD and the first electrode of the driving transistor MD. In an embodiment, a gate electrode of the fifth transistor T 5  is coupled to an i-th first emission control line E 1   i . The fifth transistor T 5  is turned off when a first light emission control signal is supplied to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i , and is turned on otherwise. 
     The sixth transistor T 6  is coupled between the second electrode of the driving transistor MD and the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED. In an embodiment, a gate electrode of the sixth transistor T 6  is coupled to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i . The sixth transistor T 6  is turned off when the first light emission control signal is supplied to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i , and is turned on otherwise. 
     The storage capacitor Cst is coupled between the first power source ELVDD and the first node N 1 . The storage capacitor Cst stores a voltage corresponding to the data signal and a threshold voltage of the driving transistor MD. 
     In an embodiment, other pixels, e.g., the second pixel PXL 2 , has the same circuit structure as the first pixel PXL 1  shown in  FIG. 9 , and accordingly, any repetitive detailed description thereof will be omitted. In an embodiment, a first transistor included in the second pixel PXL 2  is coupled to a third scan line. In an embodiment, a first transistor T 1  included in a second pixel PXL 2  located on a k-th horizontal line (e.g., a k-th pixel row) may be supplied with a third scan signal that overlaps with a second light emission control signal supplied to a k-th second emission control line E 2   k . In one embodiment, for example, a gate electrode of the first transistor T 1  included in the second pixel PXL 2  located on the k-th horizontal line may be coupled to a (k−1)-th third scan line S 3   k− 1, a k-th third scan line S 3   k , or a (k+1)-th third scan line S 3   k+ 1. 
       FIG. 10  is a signal timing diagram illustrating an embodiment of a driving method when the first pixel shown in  FIG. 9  is driven in the first mode. 
     Referring to  FIG. 10 , in such an embodiment, the first light emission control signal is supplied to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i . When the first light emission control signal is supplied to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i , the fifth transistor T 5  and the sixth transistor T 6  are turned off. 
     When the fifth transistor T 5  is turned off, the first power source ELVDD and the first electrode of the driving transistor MD are electrically disconnected from each other. When the sixth transistor T 6  is turned off, the second electrode of the driving transistor MD and the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED are electrically disconnected from each other. Therefore, the first pixel PXL 1  is set to be in the non-emission state during a period in which the first light emission control signal is supplied to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i.    
     After the first light emission control signal is supplied to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i , the first scan signal is supplied to the (i−1)-th first scan line S 1   i− 1. When the first scan signal is supplied to the (i−1)-th first scan line S 1   i− 1, the fourth transistor T 4  is turned on. When the fourth transistor T 4  is turned on, the voltage of the initialization power source Vint is supplied to the first node N 1 . 
     After the first scan signal is supplied to the (i−1)-th first scan line S 1   i− 1, the first scan signal is supplied to the i-th first scan line S 1   i . When first scan signal is supplied to the i-th first scan line S 1   i , the second transistor T 2  and the third transistor T 3  are turned on. 
     When the third transistor T 3  is turned on, the second electrode of the driving transistor MD and the first node N 1  are electrically coupled to each other. That is, when the third transistor T 3  is turned on, the driving transistor MD is diode-coupled. 
     When the second transistor T 2  is turned on, the data signal from the data line Dm is supplied to the first electrode of the driving transistor MD. Accordingly, since the first node N 1  is set to the voltage of the initialization power source Vint, which is lower than the data signal, the driving transistor MD is turned on. 
     When the driving transistor MD is turned on, a voltage obtained by subtracting an absolute threshold voltage of the driving transistor MD from a voltage of the data signal is supplied to the first node N 1 . Accordingly, the storage capacitor Cst stores a voltage corresponding to the voltage of the first node N 1 . 
     After the voltage corresponding to the threshold voltage of the driving transistor MD and the data signal is stored, the second scan signal is supplied to the i-th second scan line S 2   i . When the second scan signal is supplied to the i-th second scan line S 2   i , the first transistor T 1  is turned on. 
     When the first transistor T 1  is turned on, the voltage of the initialization power source Vint is supplied to the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED. Then, the organic capacitor Coled of the organic light emitting diode OLED is discharged. 
     After the organic capacitor Coled of the organic light emitting diode OLED is discharged, the supply of the first light emission control signal to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i  is stopped. When the supply of the first light emission control signal to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i  is stopped, the fifth transistor T 5  and the sixth transistor T 6  are turned on. When the fifth transistor T 5  is turned on, the first power source ELVDD and the first electrode of the driving transistor MD are electrically coupled to each other. When the sixth transistor T 6  is turned on, the second electrode of the driving transistor MD and the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED are electrically coupled to each other. Accordingly, the driving transistor MD controls the amount of the current flowing from the first power source ELVDD to the second power source ELVSS via the organic light emitting diode OLED, based on the voltage of the first node N 1 . Then, the organic light emitting diode OLED generates light with a predetermined luminance corresponding to the amount of the current supplied from the driving transistor MD. 
     In such an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the first mode, the second pixel PXL 2  is driven using the same method as the above-described first pixel PXL 1 . In such an embodiment, the gate electrode of the first transistor T 1  included in the second pixel PXL 2  located on the k-th horizontal line may be coupled to the (k+1)-th third scan line S 3   k+ 1. In this case, the second pixel PXL 2  is driven using the same method as the above-described first pixel PXL 1 . 
     In an embodiment, as shown in  FIG. 10 , the second scan signal supplied to the i-th second scan line S 2   i  is supplied after the first scan signal is supplied to the i-th first scan line S 1   i , but the embodiment of the disclosure is not limited thereto. In an alternative embodiment, the second scan signal supplied to the i-th second scan line S 2   i  may be supplied at various times to overlap with the first light emission control signal supplied to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i.    
     In an embodiment, as shown in  FIG. 10 , one first scan signal is supplied to the first scan lines S 1   i− 1 and S 1   i , but the embodiment of the disclosure is not limited thereto. In an alternative embodiment, as shown in  FIG. 11 , a plurality of first scan signals may be supplied to each of the first scan lines S 1   i− 1 and S 1   i . In such an embodiment, when the plurality of first scan signals are supplied to each of the first scan lines S 1   i− 1 and S 1   i , a characteristic of the driving transistor MD is initialized to a specific state, and accordingly, the display quality of the organic light emitting display device may be improved. 
     In an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, the second pixels PXL 2  are set to be in the non-emission state. In an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, the second emission driver  700  supplies the second light emission control signal to the second emission control lines E 21  and E 22  during one frame period, and accordingly the second pixel PXL 2  may be set to be in the non-emission state. 
       FIG. 12  is a signal timing diagram illustrating an embodiment of a driving method when the first pixel shown in  FIG. 9  is driven in the second mode. In  FIG. 12 , portions identical to those of  FIG. 10  will be briefly described. 
     In an embodiment, as described above, the second scan driver  200  supplies k second scan signals (k is a natural number) to each of the second scan lines S 21  to S 2   n  every predetermined period (e.g., during each frame period) when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the first mode, and the second scan driver  200  supplies j second scan signals (j is a natural number greater than k) to each of the second scan lines S 21  to S 2   n  every predetermined period when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode. In such an embodiment, as described above, the first emission driver  600  supplies p first light emission control signals (p is a natural number) to each of the first emission control lines E 11  to En 1  every predetermined period (e.g., during each frame period) when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the first mode, and supplies 1 first light emission control signals (1 is a natural number greater than p) to each of the first emission control lines E 11  to E 1   n  every predetermined period (e.g., during each frame period) when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode. In one embodiment, for example, k is 1, j is 2, p is 1 and 1 is 2, as shown in  FIGS. 10 and 12 . 
     Referring to  FIG. 12 , in such an embodiment, a first first light emission control signal EMI 1  is supplied to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i  such that the fifth transistor T 5  and the sixth transistor T 6  are turned off. When the fifth transistor T 5  and the sixth transistor T 6  are turned off, the organic light emitting diode OLED is set to be in the non-emission state. 
     After the first first light emission control signal EMI 1  is supplied to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i , the first scan signal is supplied to the (i−1)-th first scan line S 1   i− 1 such that the fourth transistor T 4  is turned on. When the fourth transistor T 4  is turned on, the voltage of the initialization power source is supplied to the first node N 1 . 
     After the first scan signal is supplied to the (i−1)-th first scan line S 1   i− 1, the first scan signal is supplied to the i-th first scan line S 1   i , and accordingly, the second transistor T 2  and the third transistor T 3  are turned on. 
     When the second transistor T 2  and the third transistor T 3  are turned on, the voltage obtained by subtracting the absolute threshold voltage of the driving transistor MD from the voltage of the data signal is supplied to the first node N 1 . Accordingly, the storage capacitor Cst stores a voltage corresponding to that of the first node N 1 . 
     After the voltage corresponding to the threshold voltage of the driving transistor MD and the data signal is stored in the storage capacitor Cst, a first second scan signal SS 21  is supplied to the i-th second scan line S 2   i , and accordingly, the first transistor T 1  is turned on. 
     When the first transistor T 1  is turned on, the voltage of the initialization power source Vint is supplied to the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED. Then, the organic capacitor Coled of the organic light emitting diode OLED is discharged. 
     After the organic capacitor Coled of the organic light emitting diode OLED is discharged, the supply of the first first light emission control signal EMI 1  to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i  is stopped. When the supply of the first first light emission control signal EMI 1  to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i  is stopped, the fifth transistor T 5  and the sixth transistor T 6  are turned on. When the fifth transistor T 5  and the sixth transistor T 6  are turned on, the driving transistor MD controls the amount of the current flowing from the first power source ELVDD to the second power source ELVSS via the organic light emitting diode OLED, based on the voltage of the first node N 1 . Then, the organic light emitting diode OLED generates light with a predetermined luminance corresponding to the amount of the current supplied from the driving transistor MD. 
     In an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, an emission period t 1  of the first pixel PXL 1  is set as a period which is about 40% or less of one frame period  1 F. 
     In an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, the user is supplied with a predetermined image via the lenses  20 . In such an embodiment, when the emission period t 1  exceeds about 40% of the one frame period  1 F, fatigue of the eyes of the user may be rapidly increased. Accordingly, in an embodiment of the disclosure, the first pixel PXL 1  is set to be in an emission state during the period which is about 40% or less of the one frame period  1 F. 
     In an embodiment, the first emission driver  600  supplies a second first light emission control signal EMI 2  to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i  after the first pixel PXL 1  emits light for a predetermined time. In such an embodiment, when the second first light emission control signal EMI 2  is supplied, the fifth transistor T 5  and the sixth transistor T 6  are turned off. When the fifth transistor T 5  and the sixth transistor T 6  are turned off, the organic light emitting diode OLED is set to be in the non-emission state. 
     In such an embodiment, a second second scan signal SS 22  is supplied to the i-th second scan line S 2   i . When the second second scan signal SS 22  is supplied to the i-th second scan line S 2   i , the first transistor T 1  is turned on. When the first transistor T 1  is turned on, the voltage of the initialization power source Vint is supplied to the organic light emitting diode OLED, and accordingly the luminance of light may be effectively prevented from being increased in black expression. 
     When the second first light emission control signal EMI 2  is supplied to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i , a voltage of the i-th first emission control line E 1   i  is increased from a low voltage to a high voltage. Then, a voltage of the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED is increased by the coupling of a parasitic capacitor (not shown) of the sixth transistor T 6 . When the voltage of the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED is increased, the organic light emitting diode OLED may minutely emit light. Accordingly, the organic light emitting diode OLED minutely emits light during a period in which black is expressed after the emission period t 1 , such that the luminance of the black may be increased. 
     In an embodiment of the disclosure, when the second second scan signal SS 22  is supplied to the i-th second scan line S 2   i  after the second first light emission control signal EMI 2  is supplied to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i , the voltage of the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED is decreased to the voltage of the initialization power source Vint. In such an embodiment, the voltage of the initialization power source Vint have a predetermined voltage level such that the organic light emitting diode OLED emits no light when the voltages of the initialization power source is applied thereto, and accordingly, the black may be stably expressed. 
     In an embodiment, the second second scan signal SS 22  may be supplied at various times to overlap with the second first light emission control signal EMI 2  in the one frame period  1 F. In an embodiment, the second second scan signal SS 22  may be supplied in the one frame period  1 F after the second first light emission control signal EMI 2  is supplied. In an embodiment, the width (e.g., temporal with) of the second second scan signal SS 22  may be variously set. In an embodiment, the width of the second second scan signal SS 22  may be equal to a width of the first second scan signal SS 21 .

     Referring to  FIG. 13A , in an embodiment of the disclosure, the first emission driver  600  supplies a first first light emission control signal EMI 1  to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i  and then supplies a second first light emission control signal EMI 2  after a predetermined emission period t 1  from the first first light emission control signal EMI 1 . 
     In an embodiment, the second scan driver  200  supplies a first second scan signal SS 21  to the i-th second scan line S 2   i  to overlap with the first first light emission control signal, and supplies a second second scan signal SS 22 ′ to the i-th second scan line S 2   i  to overlap with the second first light emission control signal EMI 2 . In an embodiment, the second second scan signal SS 22 ′ is set to have a width wider than that of the first second scan signal SS 21 . In such an embodiment, where the second second scan signal SS 22 ′ is set to have the width wider than a width of the first second scan signal SS 21 , the time for suppling the voltage of the initialization power source Vint to the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED is increased, and accordingly, the black may be stably expressed. 
     Referring to  FIG. 13B , in an embodiment of the disclosure, the first emission driver  600  supplies a first first light emission control signal EMI 1  to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i  and then supplies a second first light emission control signal EMI 2  after a predetermined emission period t 1 . 
     In an embodiment, the second scan driver  200  supplies a first second scan signal SS 21  to the i-th second scan line S 2   i  to overlap with the first first light emission control signal EMI 1 . In such an embodiment, the second scan driver  200  supplies a plurality of second second scan signals SS 22  to the i-th second scan line S 2   i  to overlap with the second first light emission control signal EMI 2 . Then, the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED is initialized to the voltage of the initialization power source Vint whenever the plurality of second second scan signals SS 22  are supplied, and accordingly, the black may be stably expressed. 
       FIG. 14  is a view illustrating an alternative embodiment of the organic light emitting display device corresponding to  FIG. 2 . In  FIG. 14 , components identical to those of  FIG. 8  are designated by like reference numerals, and their detailed descriptions will be omitted. 
     Referring to  FIG. 14 , an embodiment of the organic light emitting display device includes a first scan driver  100 ′, the third scan driver  300 , the data driver  400 , the timing controller  500 , the first emission driver  600  and the second emission driver  700 . 
     First pixels PXL 1 ′ are located to be coupled to first scan lines S 11  to S 1   n , first emission control lines E 11  to E 1   n , and data lines D 1  to Dm. The first pixels PXL 1 ′ are selected or selectively activated when the first scan signal is supplied to the first scan lines S 11  to S 1   n  to be supplied with a data signal from the data lines D 1  to Dm. An organic light emitting diode included in each of the first pixels PXL 1 ′ is initialized to a voltage of an initialization power source Vint when the first scan signal is supplied to the first scan lines S 11  to S 1   n.    
     The first pixels PXL 1 ′ supplied with the data signal generate light with a predetermined luminance corresponding to the data signal. Here, the emission time of the first pixel PXL 1 ′ is controlled by a first light emission control signal supplied from the first emission control lines E 11  to E 1   n.    
     The first scan driver  100 ′ supplies the first scan signal to the first scan lines S 11  to S 1   n , corresponding to a first gate control signal GCS 1 . In an embodiment, the first scan driver  100 ′ may sequentially supply the first scan signal to the first scan lines S 11  to S 1   n . When the first scan signal is sequentially supplied to the first scan lines S 11  to S 1   n , the first pixels PXL 1 ′ are sequentially selected or turned on in units of horizontal lines. In such an embodiment, the first scan signal is set to have the gate-on voltage such that transistors included in the first pixels PXL 1 ′ are sequentially turned on. 
     In an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the first mode and the second mode, the first scan driver  100 ′ supplies the first scan signal to the first scan lines S 11  to S 1   n . Thus, the first pixels PXL 1 ′ may display a predetermined image regardless of the mode (i.e., the first mode or the second mode) of the organic light emitting display device. 
       FIG. 15  is a view illustrating an embodiment of the first pixel shown in  FIG. 14 . The same or like elements shown in  FIG. 15  have been labeled with the same reference characters as used above to describe the embodiments of the first pixel shown in  FIG. 9 , and any repetitive detailed description thereof will hereinafter be omitted or simplified. 
     Referring to  FIG. 15 , in an embodiment, the first pixel PXL 1 ′ includes the organic light emitting diode OLED, the pixel circuit PC for controlling the amount of the current supplied to the organic light emitting diode OLED, and a first transistor T 1 ′. 
     The first transistor T 1 ′ is coupled between the initialization power source Vint and the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED. In such an embodiment, a gate electrode of the first transistor T 1 ′ is coupled to an (i+1)-th first scan line S 1   i+ 1. The first transistor T 1 ′ is turned on when the first scan signal is supplied to the (i+1)-th first scan line S 1   i+ 1 to supply the voltage of the initialization power source Vint to the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED. 
     When the first pixel PXL 1 ′ shown in  FIG. 15  is driven in the first mode, a driving method thereof is substantially the same as that described above with reference to  FIG. 10 , and any repetitive detailed description thereof will be omitted. 
       FIG. 16  is a signal timing diagram illustrating an embodiment of a driving method when the first pixel shown in  FIG. 15  is driven in the second mode. 
     Referring to  FIG. 16 , in an embodiment, a first first light emission control signal EMI 1  is supplied to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i  such that the fifth transistor T 5  and the sixth transistor T 6  are turned off. When the fifth transistor T 5  and the sixth transistor T 6  are turned off, the organic light emitting diode OLED is set to be in the non-emission state. 
     After the first first light emission control signal EMI 1  is supplied to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i , the first scan signal is supplied to the (i−1)-th first scan line S 1   i− 1 such that the fourth transistor T 4  is turned on. When the fourth transistor T 4  is turned on, the voltage of the initialization power source Vint is supplied to the first node N 1 . 
     After the first scan signal is supplied to the (i−1)-th first scan line S 1   i− 1, the first scan signal is supplied to the i-th first scan line S 1   i , and accordingly, the second transistor T 2  and the third transistor T 3  are turned on. 
     When the second transistor T 2  and the third transistor T 3  are turned on, the voltage obtained by subtracting the absolute threshold voltage of the driving transistor MD from the voltage of the data signal is supplied to the first node N 1 . Accordingly, the storage capacitor Cst stores a voltage corresponding to that of the first node N 1 . 
     After the voltage corresponding to the threshold voltage of the driving transistor MD and the data signal is stored in the storage capacitor Cst, the first scan signal is supplied to the (i+1)-th first scan line S 1   i+ 1, and accordingly, the first transistor T 1 ′ is turned on. 
     When the first transistor T 1 ′ is turned on, the voltage of the initialization power source Vint is supplied to the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode OLED. Then, the organic capacitor Coled of the organic light emitting diode OLED is discharged. 
     After the organic capacitor Coled of the organic light emitting diode OLED is discharged, the supply of the first first light emission control signal EMI 1  to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i  is stopped. When the supply of the first first light emission control signal EMI 1  to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i  is stopped, the fifth transistor T 5  and the sixth transistor T 6  are turned on. Accordingly, the driving transistor MD controls the amount of the current flowing from the first power source ELVDD to the second power source ELVSS via the organic light emitting diode OLED, based on the voltage of the first node N 1 . Then, the organic light emitting diode OLED generates light with a predetermined luminance corresponding to the amount of the current supplied from the driving transistor MD. After that, the first pixel PXL 1 ′ is driven corresponding to the data signal during an emission period t 1  set as a period, which is about 40% or less of one frame period  1 F. 
     After the emission period t 1 , the first emission driver  600  supplies a second first light emission control signal EMI 2  to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i . When the second first light emission control signal EMI 2  is supplied to the i-th first emission control line E 1   i , the fifth transistor T 5  and the sixth transistor T 6  are turned off. When the fifth transistor T 5  and the sixth transistor T 6  are turned off, the organic light emitting diode OLED is set to be in the non-emission state. 
     After that, the first scan signal is sequentially supplied to the (i−1)-th first scan line S 1   i− 1, the i-th first scan line S 1   i , and the (i+1)-th first scan line S 1   i+ 1. Here, although the first scan signal is supplied to the (i−1)-th first scan line S 1   i− 1 and the i-th first scan line S 1   i , the non-emission state of the first pixel PXL 1 ′ is maintained by the second first light emission control signal EMI 2 . 
     When the first scan signal is supplied to the (i+1)-th first scan line S 1   i+ 1, the first transistor T 1 ′ is turned on. When the first transistor T 1 ′ is turned on, the voltage of the initialization power source Vint is supplied to the organic light emitting diode OLED, and accordingly, the luminance of light may be effectively prevented from being increased in black expression. 
       FIG. 17  is a view illustrating an embodiment of the organic light emitting display device corresponding to  FIG. 5 . In  FIG. 17 , components identical to those of  FIG. 8  are designated by like reference numerals, and any repetitive detailed description thereof will be omitted. 
     Referring to  FIG. 17 , an embodiment of the organic light emitting display device includes the first scan driver  100 , the second scan driver  200 , the third scan driver, a fourth scan driver  800 , the data driver  400 , the timing control driver (or timing controller)  500 , the first emission driver  600 , the second emission driver  700 , and a third emission driver  900 . 
     A pixel region is divided into a first pixel region AA 1 , a second pixel region AA 2 , and a third pixel region AA 3 . In an embodiment, the first pixel region AA 1  includes first pixels PXL 1 , and the second pixel region AA 2  includes second pixels PXL 2 . In such an embodiment, the third pixel region AA 3  includes third pixels PXL 3 . 
     The third pixels PXL 3  are connected to fourth scan lines S 41  and S 42 , third emission control lines E 31  and E 32 , and the data lines D 1  to Dm. The third pixels PXL 3  are selected or selectively activated when a fourth scan signal is supplied to the fourth scan lines S 41  and S 42  to be supplied with a data signal from the data lines D 1  to Dm. The fourth pixels PXL 4  supplied with the data signal generate light with a predetermined luminance corresponding to the data signal. Here, the emission time of the fourth pixels PXL 4  is controlled by a third light emission control signal supplied from the third emission control lines E 31  and E 32 . 
     In an embodiment, as shown in  FIG. 17 , two fourth scan lines S 41  and S 42  and two third emission control lines E 31  and E 32  are formed in the third pixel region AA 3 , but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In an alternative embodiment, two or more fourth scan lines S 41  and S 42  and two or more third emission control lines E 31  and E 32  may be formed in the third pixel region AA 3 . In an embodiment, one or more dummy scan lines (not shown) and one or more dummy emission control lines (not shown) may be additionally formed in the third pixel region AA 3 , corresponding to a circuit structure of the third pixel PXL 3 . In such an embodiment, the circuit structure of the third pixel PXL 3  is set substantially identical to that of the first pixel PXL 1 , and therefore, any repetitive detailed description thereof will be omitted. 
     The fourth scan driver  800  supplies the fourth scan signal to the fourth scan lines S 41  and S 42 , corresponding to a fourth gate control signal GCS 4 . In an embodiment, the fourth scan driver  800  may sequentially supply the fourth scan signal to the fourth scan lines S 41  and S 42 . When the fourth scan signal is sequentially supplied to the fourth scan lines S 41  and S 42 , the third pixels PXL 3  are sequentially selected in units of horizontal lines. In such an embodiment, the fourth scan signal is set to have the gate-on voltage based on the fourth gate control signal GCS 4  such that transistors included in the third pixels PXL 3  are turned on. 
     In an embodiment, the fourth scan driver  800  supplies the fourth scan signal to the fourth scan lines S 41  and S 42  when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the first mode, and does not supply the fourth scan signal to the fourth scan lines S 41  and S 42  when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode. Therefore, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, the fourth scan lines S 41  and S 42  are set to have the gate-off voltage. 
     The third emission driver  900  is supplied with a third emission control signal ECS 3  from the timing controller  500 . The third emission driver  900  supplied with the third emission control signal ECS 3  supplies the third light emission control signal to the third emission control lines E 31  and E 32 . In an embodiment, the third emission driver  900  may sequentially supply the third light emission control signal to the third emission control lines E 31  and E 32 . The third light emission control signal is supplied to control the emission time of the third pixel PXL 3 . In an embodiment, the third light emission control signal is set to have the gate-off voltage such that the transistors included in the third pixels PXL 3  are turned off. 
     In an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the first mode, the third emission driver  900  sequentially supplies the third light emission control signal to the third emission control lines E 31  and E 32 . In such an embodiment, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, the third emission driver  900  supplies the third light emission control signal to the third emission control lines E 31  and E 32  during one frame period. Thus, when the organic light emitting display device is driven in the second mode, the third emission control lines E 31  and E 32  are set to have the gate-off voltage, and accordingly, the third pixels PXL 3  are set to be in the non-emission state. 
     In embodiments of the organic light emitting display device and the driving method thereof according to the disclosure, a plurality of light emission control signals are supplied when the organic light emitting display device is mounted in a wearable device. In such an embodiment, the voltage of the initialization power source is supplied to the anode electrode of the organic light emitting diode whenever the plurality of light emission control signals are supplied, and accordingly, black may be stably expressed.
