A gate driving circuit in a liquid crystal display is disclosed which can minimize a power consumption by avoiding unnecessary drive of gate line drivers. The gate driving circuit is used in a liquid crystal display having a liquid crystal panel with thin film transistors and pixel electrodes for displaying an image, a source driving circuit for applying video data to a source line in the liquid crystal panel, and a gate driving circuit for applying a driving signal to a gate line in the thin film transistors. The gate driving circuit includes a plurality of gate line drivers connected in series for applying the driving signal to the gate line, and a plurality of clock generation controlling units corresponding to the plurality of gate line drivers each for controlling a timing of a clock signal to a respective gate line driver, thereby controlling a driving timing of the respective gate line driver.
