An LCD device has data lines and drain electrodes that are not open at crossing areas overlapped with gate lines and gate electrodes. The LCD device includes a gate line arranged on a substrate and having a portion bent angularly and inwardly; a gate electrode projecting from the gate line; a gate insulating layer on the surface of the substrate; a data line overlapped with some of the bent portion of the gate line, the data line perpendicular to the gate line to define a pixel region; a source electrode projecting from the data line; a drain electrode on the gate insulating layer at a fixed interval from the source electrode; an active layer below the data line, the source electrode and the drain electrode; and a pixel electrode in the pixel region.
