Abstract
A method is disclosed displaying digital broadcasting channel information in a wireless terminal. The method for displaying digital broadcasting channel information in a folder-type wireless terminal including a main body and a sub-body installed on the main body in such a manner that the sub-body is movable between opened and closed positions with respect to the main body, the sub-body including an internal display part installed on an inside surface of the sub-body and an external display part installed on an outside surface of the sub-body, includes creating a list of current broadcast programs for channels based on digital broadcast program guide data, which are previously stored, if a predetermined key is input in a state where the sub-body is opposite to the main body, and displaying the created list of the current broadcast programs for channels on the external display part. A user utilizing a folder-type wireless terminal can easily determine channel information of a digital broadcasting service, which is currently broadcasted, through the external display part without opening a sub-body (i.e. folder) of the folder-type wireless terminal. In addition, it is possible to simply determine channel information of a digital broadcasting service, which is currently broadcasted, only by inputting a predetermined key when the folder of the folder-type wireless terminal is closed.
