1. A display device, comprising:
a display panel comprising a display module and a touch module, the display panel having a first display area, a second display area and a first bending area located at a junction between the first display area and the second display area, the display panel being capable of being bent at the first bending area;
a data driving unit configured to control portions of the display module located in the first display area and the second display area to display;
a touch driving unit configured to control touch electrode groups of the touch module located in the first display area and the second display area; and
a bendable circuit board having a second bending area, an orthographic projection of the second bending area on the display panel being overlapped with the first bending area during the display device being bent,
wherein the bendable circuit board is connected with the data driving unit and the touch driving unit respectively, and transmits a data signal in any of the first display area and the second display area to the data driving unit and transmits a touch signal in any of the first display area and the second display area to the touch driving unit.
