1. A display apparatus comprising:
a liquid crystal panel configured to display an image;
a light guide plate provided behind the liquid crystal panel in a first direction;
a light source module adjacent to a side surface of the light guide plate, the light source module comprising a plurality of light sources arranged in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction and configured to emit light toward the side surface of the light guide plate;
a rear chassis provided behind the light guide plate in the first direction; and
a heat dissipation member coupled to the rear chassis and configured to dissipate heat generated by the light source module,
wherein the heat dissipation member comprises:
a first heat dissipation member contacting the light source module; and
a second heat dissipation member,
wherein an end of the first heat dissipation member and an end of the second heat dissipation member are aligned side by side in a third direction perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction,
wherein the end of the first heat dissipation member and the end of the second heat dissipation member are separated by a gap in the third direction, in a first state, and
wherein the end of the first heat dissipation member is configured to move toward the end of the second heat dissipation member in the third direction, so as to be in contact with the end of the second heat dissipation member in a second state.
