Claim 7:
8. A mobile terminal comprising:
a touch screen divided into a plurality of regions to display execution screens of different applications in each region; and
a controller that combines a first touch input and a second touch input to generate a multi-touch event, and performs a function according to the multi-touch event with respect to one point on a first region to which the first touch input is applied when the second touch input is applied to a second region on the touch screen on which an execution screen of a second application is displayed while the first touch input is applied to the first region on the touch screen on which an execution screen of a first application is displayed,
wherein the controller is further configured to:
when the second touch input is applied while the first touch input is applied, map perform a first mapping of coordinates corresponding to the second touch input to the first region to which the first touch input is applied,
perform a second mapping of a second touch event defined by the second touch input to the first region using the mapped coordinates as a starting point, and
