Original Abstract Submitted

a display device comprises a display unit, a communication unit and a processor, which identifies, based on an ir signal received through the communication unit, whether there is a pairing history of a remote controller and the display device, identifies whether there is a bluetooth connection between the display device and the remote controller, counts a number of times the bluetooth connection had been cut off between the display device and the remote controller, and controls, based on the counted number of times the bluetooth connection had been cut off, the display unit so that a user interface (ui) for pairing with the remote controller is displayed.
