1. A multilayer ceramic capacitor comprising:
a ceramic body including a dielectric layer and having first and second surfaces opposing each other in a width direction, third and fourth surfaces connecting the first and second surfaces and opposing each other in a length direction, and fifth and sixth surfaces connected to the first to fourth surfaces and opposing each other in a thickness direction;
an external electrode disposed on an external surface of the ceramic body;
a plurality of internal electrodes disposed inside the ceramic body, exposed through the first and second surfaces, and having one end portion exposed through the third or fourth surface; and
a first side margin portion and a second side margin portion disposed on the first and second surfaces, through which edges of the plurality of internal electrodes are exposed,
wherein RGB values of the first and second surfaces on which the first and second side margin portions are disposed are different from RGB values of the fifth and sixth surfaces which are in parallel with planar surfaces of the plurality of internal electrodes, and
wherein the first and second side margin portions have an average thickness between 2 μm and 10 μm.
