The light input efficiency of a light-emitting device into a circular disc-shaped or elliptical disc-shaped light guide plate is increased. A light-emitting device includes a first light-emitting unit (12a) that includes a plurality of light-emitting elements (L1 to L5) arranged curvilinearly, a second light-emitting unit (12b) that includes a plurality of light-emitting elements (L6 to L10) arranged curvilinearly, and a coupling portion (12c) that is disposed so as to coincide with a region (SA) sandwiched by the first and second light-emitting units and couples the first and second light-emitting units.
