7. The display assembly of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the first portion of the cured adhesive layer is in a range of 60 μm to 120 μm.

8. The display assembly of claim 1 , wherein the second portion of the cured adhesive layer has a thickness in a range of 60 μm to 90 μm.

9. The display assembly of claim 1 , wherein the blocking layer is a protection film.

10. The display assembly of claim 1 , wherein the blocking layer is a polarizer.

11. A display device comprising the display assembly of claim 1 .

12. A manufacturing method of a display assembly, comprising:

preparing a display panel, the display panel comprising: a screen portion, a chip providing portion, a bendable portion located between the screen portion and the chip providing portion, and a spacer portion connected between the bendable portion and the screen portion;

forming a blocking layer on the screen portion;

forming an adhesive layer on the display panel;
