The display panel further includes a liquid crystal display panel (LCD panel) on the light source module and a front frame which is disposed on the LCD panel enclosing a lateral side of the LCD panel. The sidewall of the reflector sheet extends between the lateral side of the LCD panel and the front frame to provide insulation.
