A light emitting module includes a light emitting chip generating light, a case and a lead frame. The case includes a bottom plate and sidewalls connected to the bottom plate. The bottom plate and the sidewalls define a receiving space in which the light emitting chip is received. The light is emitted in a first direction through an opening portion opposite to the bottom plate. The lead frame includes an electrode portion disposed in the case, and electrically connected to the light emitting chip, a connecting portion extending from the electrode portion and disposed outside of the case, a mounted portion disposed adjacent to the connecting portion, and a buffering portion disposed between the connecting portion and the mounted portion. The buffering portion has a generally nonlinear shape protruding in a direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction.
