6. The portable communication device of claim 5 , wherein the second sealing member is positioned to contact the second housing structure.

7. The portable communication device of claim 1 , wherein the sealing member is positioned to contact the third portion based on the third portion of the flexible display being at least partially folded.

8. The portable communication device of claim 7 , wherein the sealing member is deformed corresponding to a shape of third portion based on the third portion of the flexible display being at least partially folded.

9. The portable communication device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one sealing member includes a sponge.

10. The portable communication device of claim 1 , wherein a bottom surface and side surface of the at least one sealing member are disposed to contact the hinge cover.

11. A portable communication device, comprising: a first housing structure; a second housing structure rotatable between a first position in which the second housing structure is folded to face the first housing structure, and a second position in which the second housing structure is unfolded in parallel with a side of the first housing structure; a hinge structure rotatably coupling the first housing structure and the second housing structure; a hinge cover disposed between the first housing structure and the second housing structure to cover the hinge structure; a display including: a first portion disposed in the first housing structure, a second portion disposed in the second housing structure, and a folding portion provided between the first portion and the second portion and disposed corresponding to the hinge cover; and at least one sealing member mounted on the hinge cover to prevent accumulation of foreign bodies between the hinge cover and the display, the sealing member tightly contacting an edge of the display, wherein the at least one sealing member includes a pair of sealing members each of which is disposed at a respective one of two opposite ends of the hinge cover.

12. The portable communication device of claim 11 , wherein the at least one sealing member includes a first sealing member positioned between the first housing structure and the hinge cover.

13. The portable communication device of claim 12 , wherein the first sealing member is positioned to contact the first housing structure.

14. The portable communication device of claim 12 , wherein the at least one sealing member includes a second sealing member positioned between the second housing structure and the hinge cover.

15. The portable communication device of claim 14 ,

wherein the first sealing member is disposed in the first housing structure, and the second sealing member is disposed in the second housing structure, and

wherein as the first housing structure and the second housing structure rotate, the first sealing member and the second sealing member slidingly contact an outer circumferential surface of the hinge cover.

16. The portable communication device of claim 14 , wherein the first sealing member or the second sealing member includes:

a body formed of a sponge material, and

a sheath layer formed of a fabric material and provided to surround the body.

17. The portable communication device of claim 11 , wherein the at least one sealing member is positioned to contact the folding portion based on the folding portion being at least partially folded.

18. The portable communication device of claim 11 , wherein the at least one sealing member is deformed corresponding to a shape of the folding portion based on the folding portion being at least partially folded.

19. The portable communication device of claim 11 ,

wherein the display includes:

a first attaching area provided along an edge of the first portion and attached to the first housing structure,

a second attaching area provided along an edge of the second portion and attached to the second housing structure, and

a plurality of contacting areas provided at two opposite ends of the folding portion and contacting the at least one sealing member, and

wherein the first attaching area, the second attaching area, and the plurality of contacting areas are combined to form a closed curve.
