### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The auxiliary electronic controller of claim 1, wherein:
the main body has an internal space therein,
a front opening and a rear opening are formed by the top surface and the bottom surface of the main body, respectively, and
a space outside of the main body and the internal space are in fluidic communication via the front opening and/or the rear opening.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The auxiliary electronic controller of claim 2, wherein the first holding portion has an internal space therein and the internal space in the first holding portion is connected to the internal space of the main body through a first vent formed at one side of the main body, and
wherein the second holding portion has an internal space therein and the internal space in the second holding portion is connected to the internal space of the main body through a second vent formed in the other side of the main body.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The auxiliary electronic controller of claim 3, wherein a first ventilation fan is disposed at the internal space of the first holding portion, and the first ventilation fan is configured to blow air to the internal space of the main body through the first vent, and
wherein a second ventilation fan is disposed at the internal space of the second holding portion, and the second ventilation fan is configured to blow air to the internal space of the main body through the second vent.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The auxiliary electronic controller of claim 4, further comprising a battery configured to supply power to the first ventilation fan and the second ventilation fan.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The auxiliary electronic controller of claim 5, wherein the battery is configured to supply power to a terminal connectable to the mobile terminal when the mobile terminal is seated in the seating portion.

### Claim 7 (depends on 5)

The auxiliary electronic controller of claim 5, further comprising a first communication interface disposed in the first holding portion to be connected to the mobile terminal.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The auxiliary electronic controller of claim 7, further comprising a second communication interface disposed in the first holding portion and electrically connected to the battery and the first communication interface.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The auxiliary electronic controller of claim 8, further comprising a third communication interface disposed in the second holding portion and electrically connected to the first communication interface.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The auxiliary electronic controller of claim 9, wherein the first control panel is disposed at a top surface of the second holding portion and disposed at a position of a center of the other side of the main body, wherein the auxiliary electronic controller further comprises:
a second control panel disposed at a top surface of the first holding portion and disposed at a position of a center of one side of the main body, and
wherein the first control panel and the second control panel partially protrude towards the main body to overlap by a predetermined distance over the top surface of the main body.

### Claim 11 (depends on 10)

The auxiliary electronic controller of claim 10, further comprising:
a third control panel disposed to protrude from a bottom surface of the first holding portion at an upper end of the bottom surface of the first holding portion, configured to elastically rotate using one side as a rotation axis, and configured to insert into the first holding portion when an external force operates and protrude to the bottom surface of the first holding portion when the external force is removed; and
a fourth control panel disposed to protrude from a bottom surface of the second holding portion at an upper end of the bottom surface of the second holding portion, configured to rotate elastically using one side as a rotation axis, and configured to insert into the second holding portion when the external force operates and protrudes to the bottom surface of the second holding portion when the external force is removed.

### Claim 12 (depends on 2)

The auxiliary electronic controller of claim 2, wherein the radiating structure comprises:
a heat sink disposed at the internal space of the main body and having one surface contacting the mobile terminal seated in the seating portion through the front opening; and
