A gate driver includes a plurality of shift registers and a plurality of connection controllers. The shift registers are connected to a plurality of gate lines of a stretchable display panel, respectively. The shift registers are grouped into a plurality of shift register groups. N adjacent shift registers constitute each of the shift register groups, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 2. The connection controllers change a connection structure of the N adjacent shift registers included in the each of the shift register groups according to whether the stretchable display panel is stretched.
