A light emitting device is disclosed. The light emitting device includes a light emitting structure including a first conductive-type semiconductor layer, an active layer, and a second conductive-type semiconductor layer, a light-transmissive conductive layer disposed on the second conductive-type semiconductor layer and having a plurality of open regions through which the second conductive-type semiconductor layer is exposed, and a second electrode disposed on the light-transmissive conductive layer so as to extend beyond at least one of the open regions, wherein the second electrode contacts the second conductive-type semiconductor layer in the open regions and contacts the light-transmissive conductive layer in regions excluding the open regions.
