Abstract
Disclosed in the present specification are a foldable display device for displaying interconnected first and second contents respectively in a first display region and a second display region which are physically and visually separated by the folding of a housing part, and a method for controlling the same. The foldable display device according to the present invention is capable of further displaying a second content connected with a first content in a second display region facing the same direction as a first display region when the housing part is converted from a completely folded state to a half unfolded state during a period of displaying the first content in the first display region of at least two display regions which are physically or visually separated by the folding of the housing part in a state where the housing part is completely folded. The present specification allows a user to simultaneously identify the first content displayed in the first display region and the second content displayed in the second display region in the second state. Accordingly, the user can conveniently simultaneously compare at least two interconnected contents.
