A driving circuit of a display device and a method for driving the display device are disclosed which are capable of reducing distortion of scan pulses supplied to gate lines of a liquid crystal panel. The driving circuit includes a first shift register for sequentially supplying first scan pulses to one-side ends of gate lines included in a display, respectively, to sequentially drive the gate lines, the first shift register simultaneously driving at least two adjacent ones of the gate lines for a predetermined period of time, and a second shift register for sequentially supplying second scan pulses to the other-side ends of the gate lines, respectively, to sequentially drive the gate lines, the second shift register simultaneously driving at least two adjacent ones of the gate lines fora predetermined period of time.
