In a liquid crystal display panel, each pixel unit includes first and second pixels, a first scan line coupled to the first pixel, and a second scan line coupled to the second pixel via an active element. During a first scan period, the first scan line, the second scan line and the active element are all activated to write a first voltage to the first and second pixels. During a second scan period, the first scan line remains activated but the second scan line and the active element are deactivated so that a second voltage is written to the first sub-pixel and the second sub-pixel is maintained at the first voltage.
