A liquid crystal display device, in which a plurality of pixels are defined in a matrix form and each pixel includes red, green, blue, and white sub-pixels adjacent to one another vertically and horizontally, is disclosed. The liquid crystal display device includes first, second, and third substrates sequentially stacked from the bottom, a thin-film transistor array formed on the first substrate, a black matrix formed on the second substrate between the first substrate and the second substrate at the boundary of the respective sub-pixels, a color filter layer formed on the second substrate between the first substrate and the second substrate at the respective sub-pixels, and a barrier layer formed on the third substrate over each white sub-pixel. An opening in the white sub-pixel has a smaller size than that of openings in the red, green, and blue sub-pixels. Also, an angle defined between a normal line of the second substrate and a line that connects an edge of the barrier layer with an edge of the black matrix formed below the barrier layer is larger than a value calculated by subtracting 5 degrees from an angle causing the total reflection of light to be passed through the second substrate.
