A display panel and a method for manufacturing the display panel are provided. The method includes providing a first substrate, forming a buffer layer including at least one first buffer layer on a first side of the first substrate; forming a LED structure including a first LED structure on a side of the buffer layer facing away from the first substrate, forming a planarization layer covering the LED structure on a side of the LED structure facing away from the buffer layer, forming an electrode structure connected to the LED units on a side of the planarization layer facing away from the LED structure, and forming a control circuit on a side of the electrode structure facing away from the LED structure, where the control circuit is electrically connected to the electrode structure and configured to control operation states of the LED units.
