A data driving circuit and an OLED(Organic Light Emitting Display) device including the same are provided to enhance image quality by compensating for the lightness decrease of lights due to the deterioration of the OLED device. An OLED(Organic Light Emitting Display) device includes a reference pixel controller(11), a data driver(20), and a display panel(30). The reference pixel controller includes a beam detecting unit(111) and a reference current controller(112). The beam detecting unit detects luminescence intensity of a reference pixel and outputs a first control signal according to the luminescence intensity. The reference current controller outputs a second control signal for controlling the magnitude of reference current inputted to the reference pixel according to the first control signal. The data driver includes a current source unit(201) and a digital to analog converter(202). The current source unit outputs current with the same magnitude as the reference current according to the second control signal. The digital to analog converter outputs data currents by scaling current with the same magnitude as the reference current. The display panel includes pixels having organic light emitting elements radiated by the data currents.
