1. A method by which a first device receives information with respect to a service from a second device, the method comprising:

forming a communication network with a third device, when the first device is located within a predetermined range from the third device;

receiving property information of the third device from the third device via the communication network;

transmitting, to the second device, context information of the first device related to the property information of the third device; and

receiving, from the second device, information with respect to the service corresponding to the property information of the third device and the context information of the first device related to the property information of the third device.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information with respect to the service comprises link information of a source providing the service.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, from the second device, a plurality of types of services;

selecting, based on a user input via the first device, a type of service from among the plurality of types of services; and

transmitting, to the second device, the type of service,

wherein the information with respect to the service comprises link information of a source providing the service according to the type of service.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the context information of the first device comprises information related to an application being executed by the first device.

transmitting, to the second device, the type of specific information to be provided by the service,

wherein the information with respect to the service comprises link information of a source providing the service according to the type of specific information.

10. A first device which receives information with respect to a service from a second device, the first device comprising:

at least one memory configured to store one or more computer executable instructions, and

a processor configured to execute the one or more computer executable instructions stored in the at least one memory to:

form a communication network with a third device, when the third device is located within a predetermined range from the first device;

receive property information of the third device from the third device via the communication network;

transmit, to the second device, context information of the first device related to the property information of the third device; and

receive, from the second device, information with respect to the service corresponding to the property information of the third device and the context information of the first device related to the property information of the third device.

11. The first device of claim 10 , wherein the information with respect to the service comprises link information of a source providing the service.

12. The first device of claim 10 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the one or more computer executable instructions stored in the at least one memory to:

receive, from the second device, a plurality of types of services;

select, based on a user input via the first device, a type of service from among the plurality of types of services; and

transmit, to the second device, the type of service, and

wherein the information with respect to the service comprises link information of a source providing the service according to the type of service.

13. The first device of claim 10 , wherein the context information of the first device comprises information related to an application being executed by the first device.

14. The first device of claim 10 , wherein the context information of the first device comprises information related to an execution history of applications executed by the first device.

15. The first device of claim 10 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the one or more computer executable instructions stored in the at least one memory to:

transmit context information of a user of the first device to the second device, the context information of the user of the first device comprising at least one of a gender of the user and a job of the user, and

wherein the information received from the second device with respect to the service corresponds to the property information of the third device, the context information of the first device related to the property information of the third device, and the context information of the user.

16. The first device of claim 10 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the one or more computer executable instructions stored in the at least one memory to:

transmit, to the second device, the property information of the third device and intention information related to the first device,

wherein the information received from the second device with respect to the service corresponds to the property information of the third device, the context information of the first device related to the property information of the third device and the intention information related to the first device.

17. The first device of claim 16 , wherein the intention information related to the first device is information related to services a user of the first device wants to receive and includes information regarding types of services and types of specific information to be provided by the service.

18. The first device of claim 10 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the one or more computer executable instructions stored in the at least one memory to:

receive, from the second device, a plurality of types of services;
