displaying a UI on a display unit of a user terminal having an upper area displaying status information pertaining to the user terminal and a lower area displaying a plurality of selectable input receiving units;

receiving a first and second touching events on an adjustment area positioned in perimeter of the display unit

within a preset distance from a bezel of the user terminal;

in response to the first touching event:

determining the first touching event having a first distance between a first initial touch position and a first final touch position;

scaling the UI into a reduced form toward the final touch position of the first touching event;

in response to the second touch event:

determining the second touching event having a second distance between a second initial touch position and a second final touch position;

scaling the UI into an enlarged form towards the second final touch position of the second touching event.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein location of the reduced form is based upon moving direction of the first touching event and size of the enlarged form corresponds to a size of a screen displayed on the display unit.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein size of the reduced form is based on the first distance and size of the enlarged form is based on the second distance.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

showing an icon for adjusting a size or position of the reduced form on the reduced form; and

displaying a UI having a size or a position thereof adjusted using the icon.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the enlarged form is displayed in the event that the user terminal is rebooted while the reduced form is being displayed.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the reduced form is displayed reduced by a preset rate regardless of the first distance.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the enlarged form corresponds to a size of a screen displayed on the display unit.

8. A method of adjusting a user interface (UI) on a user terminal, the method comprising:

displaying a UI on a display unit of a user terminal having an upper area displaying status information pertaining to the user terminal and a lower area displaying a plurality of selectable input receiving units;

receiving a first and second touching events on an adjustment area positioned in a perimeter of the display unit

within a preset distance from a bezel of the user terminal;

in response to the first touching event:

determining the first touching event having a first distance between a first initial touch position and a first final touch position;

scaling the UI into a reduced form towards the final touch position of the first touching event;

in response to the second touch event:

determining the second touching event having a second distance between a second initial touch position and a second final touch position

scaling the UI into an enlarged form according to the second touching event.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein location of the reduced form is based upon moving direction of the first touching event and size of the enlarged form corresponds to a size of a screen displayed on the display unit.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the reduced form is displayed on a left side, a lower left side, a right side, or a lower right side of the display unit.

11. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

showing an icon for adjusting a size or position of the reduced form on the reduced form; and

displaying a UI having a size or a position thereof adjusted using the icon.

12. The method of claim 8 , wherein the enlarged form is displayed in the event that the user terminal is rebooted while the reduced form is being displayed.

13. The method of claim 8 , wherein the reduced form is displayed reduced by a preset rate regardless of the first distance.

14. A method of adjusting a user interface (UI) on a user terminal, the method comprising:

displaying a UI on a display unit of a user terminal having an upper area displaying status information pertaining to the user terminal and a lower area displaying a plurality of selectable input receiving units; and

receiving a first and second touching events on an adjustment area positioned in a perimeter of the display unit within a preset distance from a bezel on the user terminal;

in response to the first touching event:

determining the first touching event having a first distance between a first initial touch position and a first final touch position;

scaling the UI into a reduced form according to the first touching event;

in response to the second touch event:

determining the second touching event having a second distance between a second initial touch position and a second final touch position

scaling the UI into an enlarged form according to the second touching event.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the location of the reduced form is based upon the final touch position or moving direction of the first touching event and size of the enlarged form corresponds to a size of a screen displayed on the display unit.

16. The method of claim 14 , further comprising:

showing an icon for adjusting a size or position of the enlarged form on the enlarged form; and

displaying a UI having a size or a position thereof adjusted using the icon.

17. The method of claim 14 ,

wherein the reduced form is reduced by a preset rate regardless of the first distance.

18. The method of claim 14 , wherein the reduced form is displayed on a left side of the display unit in the event that a touch means is moved in a direction towards the left bezel of the user terminal, and the reduced form is displayed on a right side of the display unit in the event that the touch means is moved in a direction towards the right bezel of the user terminal.
