A liquid crystal display includes: an insulation substrate; a thin film transistor including gate and data lines on the insulation substrate; a passivation layer on the thin film transistor; a pixel electrode on the passivation layer and including a first subpixel electrode to which a first voltage is applied and a second subpixel electrode to which a second voltage is applied; a shielding electrode on the passivation layer and applied with a common voltage; a first microcavity on the pixel electrode and injected with a liquid crystal material; a second microcavity on the shielding electrode and injected with the liquid crystal material; a common electrode on the first and second microcavities and separated from the pixel electrode and the shielding electrode by the first and second microcavities; a roof layer on the common electrode;; and an overcoat on the roof layer to seal the first and second microcavities.
