applied to said at least part of the first shopping information. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The method of claim 2, wherein each of the first and second home screen pages is one of a plurality of home screen pages, and wherein the first home screen page or a third home screen page is displayed on the display unit based on a direction of a flicking input or a dragging input applied to the second home screen page being displayed on the display unit. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The method of claim 3, wherein the third home screen page includes at least one of an application icon, a widget and a third shopping information. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the first home screen page is sectioned to a plurality of regions and the first shopping information includes a plurality of product images, and wherein the plurality of product images are located in the plurality of regions, respectively. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The method of claim 4, wherein an icon for setting an wish list is displayed on each of the plurality of regions, and wherein product information related to a corresponding region is stored in the memory unit when the icon is selected. ### Claim 6 (depends on 4) The method of claim 4, wherein event information received through the wireless communication unit is overlapped with at least one of the plurality of regions. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the detailed information comprises at least one of a phone order icon and a general settlement icon, and wherein a call function is performed when the phone order icon is selected. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The method of claim 7, wherein a controller of the mobile terminal controls the wireless communication unit to place a call to a shopping mall providing a product related to the detailed information by the call function. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the shopping information received using the wireless communication unit comprises at least one of product information, the layout information of the product information, the priority information of the product information, and event information corresponding to the product information, and the shopping information is received from a preset external server through the wireless communication unit. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the first home screen page is one of a plurality of home screen pages, wherein a plurality of objects corresponding to the plurality of home screen pages, respectively, for allowing the plurality of home screen pages to be identified are displayed on the first home screen page, and wherein a plurality of thumbnail images corresponding to the plurality of home screen pages, respectively, are overlapped with first home screen page when one of the plurality of objects is selected. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The method of claim 10, wherein the plurality of thumbnail images correspond to an image in which each of the plurality of home screen pages is reduced or an image corresponding to representative product information among product information contained in each of the plurality of home screen pages. ### Claim 12 (depends on 10) The method of claim 10, a thumbnail image corresponding to the first home screen page currently being displayed on the display unit is highlighted to distinguish from the other thumbnail images. ### Claim 13 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein each of the first and second home screen pages is one of a plurality of home screen pages, and wherein the plurality of home screen pages form a matrix structure consisting of at least one row and column in a virtual space where the first and second home screen pages are located. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The method of claim 13, wherein the first home screen page moves to be switched to the second home screen page in a vertical direction or in a horizontal direction, and wherein whether the first home screen page moves in the vertical direction or in the horizontal direction is determined by a direction of the touch input. ### Claim 15 A method of providing shopping information using a mobile terminal, the method comprising: receiving shopping information using a wireless communication unit; displaying first shopping information corresponding to at least part of the shopping information on a first home screen page displayed on a display unit; outputting detailed information corresponding to at least part of the first shopping information
