8. A method of providing user specific interaction, the method comprising:

receiving image content through a television (TV) network;

displaying the image content on a digital television;

receiving an input of selection with respect to an object of interest of a user among a plurality of regions and a plurality of objects included in the image content;

allowing an interaction of the user with respect to the object of interest; and

providing additional information corresponding to the object of interest in response to the interaction of the user,

wherein the digital television analyzes signals of a plurality of user devices, converts additional information corresponding to the analyzed signals to be appropriate for the user devices, and provides the converted additional information to the user devices, wherein the interaction comprises at least one of a vital signal of the user detected by a user device and an external force applied to the user device.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

analyzing the interaction of the user with respect to the object of interest.

10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

searching for additional information corresponding to emotion or request of the user recognized from the interaction of the user based on a result of the analyzing.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the providing of the additional information comprises providing the additional information being found as the additional information corresponding to the object of interest.

12. The method of claim 8 , wherein the additional information corresponding to the object of interest comprises at least one of information providing sensory stimulus corresponding to the object of interest, multinational language subtitles related to the image content that includes the object of interest, translation of a finger language, a Braille type, oscillation, audio supply, audio conversion, user specific sound, and information for enlargement of a subtitle font.

13. A method of providing user specific interaction, the method comprising:

detecting an event generated in a user device in response to image content displayed on a digital television (DTV);

identifying an object of interest of a user among at least one of a plurality of regions and a plurality of objects included in the image content based on the event; and

transmitting information on the object of interest to be provided with additional information corresponding to the object of interest,

wherein the digital television analyzes signals of a plurality of user devices, converts additional information corresponding to the analyzed signals to be appropriate for the user devices, and provides the converted additional information to the user devices, wherein the event generated in the user device comprises at least one of a vital signal of the user detected by the user device and an external force applied to the user device.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the identifying comprises identifying at least one of a region and object included in the image content of a point in time when the event is detected, among the at least one of the plurality of regions and objects, as the object of interest.

15. The method of claim 13 , wherein the event generated in the user device comprises at least one of a change in a vital signal of the user detected by the user device and a change in an external force applied to the user device.

16. The method of claim 13 , further comprising:

receiving additional information corresponding to the object of interest from the DTV; and

realizing the additional information corresponding to the object of interest.

17. The method of claim 13 , further comprising:

transmitting signals including the event generated in the user device to the DTV.
