8. A display device, comprising:

an interface unit configured to be connected to a mobile terminal having a first display unit displaying a content as a first screen image;

a second display unit configured to display at least one object therein; and

a controller configured to:

receive the content from the mobile terminal,

display the content on the second display unit as a second screen image corresponding to the first screen image, together with the at least one object, wherein the at least one object is displayed at a fixed position within the second display unit and a display position of the content within the second display unit is determined to avoid blocking the previously displayed at least one object,

display a monitor window for displaying the content on the second display unit, and when the first screen image is displayed on the first display unit in a first display direction among a landscape direction and a portrait direction, control the second screen image to be displayed on the second display unit in the first display direction, and

transmit information to the mobile terminal indicating the orientation direction of the monitor window is changed into a different orientation direction even though the orientation direction of the housing of the mobile terminal is not changed.

9. The display device of claim 8 , wherein when an orientation direction of the monitor window is changed into a different orientation direction, the controller is further configured to transmit information to the mobile terminal to control the first screen image to be displayed on the first display unit in a second display direction among the landscape direction and the portrait direction.

10. The display device of claim 8 , wherein when the first screen image is displayed on the first display unit in a second display direction, the controller is further configured to control the second screen image to be displayed on the second display unit in the second display direction changed from the first display direction.

11. The display device of claim 8 , wherein when the first screen image is displayed in the first display direction, the controller is further configured to control the second screen image to be displayed in the second display direction.

12. The display device of claim 8 , wherein the controller is further configured to generate and display the monitor window when a prescribed touch gesture is performed on a touchscreen of the mobile terminal after the display device is connected to the mobile terminal.

13. The display device of claim 8 , wherein when the first screen image is zoomed in on the first display unit, the controller is further configured to control the second screen image to be enlarged by enlarging the monitor window on the second display unit.

14. A method of controlling a mobile terminal, the method comprising:

sensing, via a sensor unit on the mobile terminal, an orientation direction of a housing of the mobile terminal;

displaying, via a first display unit on the mobile terminal, a content as a first screen image;

interfacing, via an interface unit on the mobile terminal, with an external display device having a second display unit displaying at least one object therein;

providing the content to the external display device;

causing, via a controller on the mobile terminal, the second display unit of the external display device to display the provided content as a second screen image corresponding to the first screen image together with the at least one object,

wherein the at least one object is displayed at a fixed position within the second display unit and a display position of the content within the second display unit is determined to avoid blocking the previously displayed at least one object, and

wherein the second display unit of the external display device displays a monitor window for displaying the content on the second display unit, and when the first screen image is displayed on the first display unit in a first display direction among a landscape direction and a portrait direction, the second screen image is displayed on the second display unit in the first display direction;

receiving information from the external display device indicating the orientation direction of the monitor window is changed into a different orientation direction even though the orientation direction of the housing of the mobile terminal is not changed; and

controlling the first screen image to be displayed on the first display unit in the second display direction changed from the first display direction or controlling the displaying of the first screen image to be maintained in the first display direction.

15. The method of claim 14 , further comprising causing, via the controller on the mobile terminal, the second display unit of the external display device to change a display size of the content within the second display unit according to the position of the at least one object displayed within the second display unit.

16. A method of controlling a display device, the method comprising:

displaying, via a second display unit on the display device, at least one object;
