Abstract
Provided is a display panel including first bypass wirings electrically coupling main pixel circuits in a first direction, and bypassing along one side of a pixel group at an outermost portion of the component area, horizontal wirings electrically coupled to the main pixel circuits and auxiliary pixel circuits and extending in a first direction, and extension wirings between two pixel groups adjacent to each other along the first direction, and extending in the first direction, wherein the extension wirings are electrically coupled to the horizontal wirings included in each of the two pixel groups, and the number of the extension wirings is less than the number of the horizontal wirings.
