1. A method of controlling at least one controlled device via a control device by an external device outside a network including the control device and the controlled device, the method comprising:
- receiving, at the external device, a control request for controlling the controlled device from the control device;
transmitting, by the external device, a message for accepting the control request to the control device;
receiving, at the external device, an identifier for identifying the controlled device from the control device, the identifier being selected among a controlled device list displayed on the control device;
displaying the received identifier on the external device; and
selectively controlling, by the external device, the controlled device via the control device based on an input on the received identifier.
