1. A method for controlling a digital device having a display, which is turned off, the method comprising:
- connecting an external controlling device to the digital device having the display turned off;
generating access information for the digital device to be controlled by the connected external controlling device, wherein the access information includes data for at least one of selecting a function, executing an application of the digital device, or controlling an execution of an application which is currently reproduced according to a current status of the digital device;
receiving a first input signal from the connected external controlling device while the display is turned off;
transmitting the generated access information to the connected external controlling device in response to the first input signal;
receiving a second input signal in accordance with the transmitted access information from the connected external controlling device;
performing at least one of selecting the function, executing the application or controlling the execution of the application which is currently reproduced in response to the second input signal; and
transmitting resultant data in accordance with the performance in response to the second input signal to the connected external controlling device,wherein the turned off display of the digital device is continuously turned off after the external controlling device is connected to the digital device.
