wherein the neck comprises a first metal material,

wherein the reinforcing plate comprises a second metal material, and

wherein a rigidity of the second metal material is greater than a rigidity of the first metal material.

2 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the leg comprises a first leg extending downward from the head along a first direction, and a second leg extending downward from the head along a second direction different from the first direction,

wherein the portion of the neck is located between an upper end of the first leg and an upper end of the second leg, and

wherein the first portion of the reinforcing plate is coupled to one of the first leg or the second leg.

3 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the leg comprises a first leg extending downward from the head along a forward direction of the head, and a second leg extending downward from the head along a rearward direction of the head,

wherein the first portion of the reinforcing plate is coupled to the second leg,

wherein the reinforcing plate further comprises a third portion coupled to the first leg, and

wherein the first portion, the second portion and the third portion of the reinforcing plate extend along respective directions that are different from each other.

4 . The display device of claim 3 , wherein the second portion of the reinforcing plate extends along a direction perpendicular to a direction along which the neck extends,

wherein the first portion of the reinforcing plate is bent downward from a first end of the second portion of the reinforcing plate, along the rearward direction of the head along which the second leg extends, and

wherein the third portion of the reinforcing plate is bent upward from a second end of the second portion of the reinforcing plate, toward an upper surface of the first leg.

5 . The display device of claim 3 , wherein the first portion of the reinforcing plate has a first length in a direction along which the first portion extends,

wherein the third portion of the reinforcing plate has a second length in a direction along which the third portion extends, and

wherein the first length is greater than the second length.

6 . The display device of claim 3 , wherein the first portion of the reinforcing plate is bent to form a first angle with respect to the second portion of the reinforcing plate,

wherein the third portion of the reinforcing plate is bent to form a second angle with respect to the second portion of the reinforcing plate, and

wherein the second angle is greater than the first angle.

7 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the second supporter further comprises a third portion supporting a third area located in front of the first area of the lower side of the head,

wherein the leg comprises:

a first leg which extends downward from the head to be inclined in a forward direction of the head, and which is coupled to the third portion of the second supporter; and

a second leg which extends downward from the head to be inclined in a rearward direction of the head, and which is coupled to the second portion of the second supporter, and

wherein the reinforcing plate further comprises a third portion which extends forward from the second portion of the reinforcing plate, and which is coupled to a lower surface of the third portion of the second supporter and the first leg.

8 . The display device of claim 7 , wherein the first leg has a groove which is recessed in a direction along which the first leg extends from an upper surface of the first leg facing the third area of the head,

wherein the third portion of the second supporter is accommodated in the groove of the first leg, and

wherein a depth of the groove in the direction along which the first leg extends is greater than a height of the third portion of the second supporter in a corresponding direction.

9 . The display device of claim 8 , wherein the groove of the first leg has:

a bottom portion in which the lower surface of the third portion of the second supporter is disposed;

a side portion extending upward from an outer edge area of the bottom portion along the direction along which the first leg extends; and

an opening portion formed at least partially by the side portion that opens toward the first portion of the second supporter,

wherein the third portion of the second supporter rests on the bottom portion of the groove, and

wherein a connection portion between the third portion of the second supporter and the first portion of the second supporter is located in the opening portion of the groove.

10 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the head comprises:

a frame which is located behind the display panel, and which is coupled to the display panel;

a back cover which covers a rear of the frame, and which is coupled to the frame; and

an end cover which covers a rear of the back cover, and which is coupled to the back cover, and

wherein the neck is disposed between the back cover and the end cover, and is coupled to the back cover.

11 . The display device of claim 10 , wherein the back cover has a coupling groove corresponding to a pressing forward from a rear side of the back cover, and in which the neck is disposed, and

wherein the neck comprises a neck fixing portion corresponding to a pressing toward the coupling groove from a rear side of the neck, and into which a fastening member is inserted.

12 . A display device comprising:

a head having a display panel; and

a stand for supporting a lower side of the head,

wherein the stand comprises:

a neck disposed on a rear side of the head, wherein a portion of the neck is located below the lower side of the head;

a leg which is opposite the head with respect to the portion of the neck, and which extends downward from the head; and

a reinforcing plate coupled to the leg,

wherein the reinforcing plate comprises:

a first portion coupled to the leg; and

a second portion which is bent toward the portion of the neck from the first portion, and which is coupled to a lower surface of the portion of the neck,
