1. A liquid crystal display (LCD) comprising:

  • an LCD panel comprising a plurality of gate lines for transmitting scanning signals, a plurality of data lines that cross the gate lines for transmitting image signals, and a plurality of pixels that are arranged in a matrix and have switching elements connected to the gate lines and the data lines;

    a data gray signal modifier that receives gray signals from an external device, and modifies gray signals of a present frame based on gray signals of present and previous frames and at least a modification parameter including a temperature, an image quality selected by a user, and an environment of the LCD;

    a gate driver sequentially applying the scanning signals to the gate lines; and

    a data driver that converts the modified gray signals into data voltages and applies the data voltages to the data lines,wherein the data gray signal modifier includes a look-up table (LUT) for a reference value of the at least a modification parameter, the LUT has modification values for modifying gray signals, and each modification value of the LUT is represented by Gij, the present frame gray signal Gn matching with Gij is expressed as Gn=(i−
