1. A display apparatus, comprising:
a liquid crystal panel; and
a backlight unit configured to emit light to the liquid crystal panel,
wherein the backlight unit comprises:
a substrate extending along a first direction;
a first light emitting diode provided on the substrate;
a second light emitting diode provided on the substrate, wherein the first light emitting diode and the second light emitting diode are arranged in the first direction;
a first refractive cover provided on the first light emitting diode to refract light emitted from the first light emitting diode;
a second refractive cover provided on the second light emitting diode to refract light emitted from the second light emitting diode; and
a package lens provided on the substrate, the first refractive cover and the second refractive cover, the package lens comprising a first lens on the first refractive cover, a second lens on the second refractive cover, and a connector, wherein the first lens and the second lens each comprise a bottom surface having a first length in the first direction that is less than a second length in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction,
wherein the connector connects the bottom surface of the first lens and the bottom surface of the second lens,
wherein the connector is coupled to the substrate and extends along the first direction,
wherein a receiving groove formed in each of the first lens and the second lens defines a receiving space,
wherein the first refractive cover comprises a curved outer surface that is spaced apart from the first lens within the receiving space, and
wherein the second refractive cover comprises a curved outer surface that is spaced apart from the second lens within the receiving space.
