Claim:
1. A flexible display apparatus comprising: a flexible display; a bending driver configured to deform the flexible display; a receiver configured to receive information indicating a bending deformation of a flexible remote controller ; and a controller configured to, in response to the receiver receiving the information indicating the bending deformation, control the bending driver to deform the display to a shape corresponding to the bending deformation of the flexible remote controller, the bending driver comprises: a plurality of piezoelectric elements arranged on a rear surface of the flexible display; and a driving circuit configured to independently drive each of the plurality of piezoelectric elements corresponding to the bending deformation of the flexible remote controller, wherein, in response to the flexible remote controller being undeformed within a predetermined threshold time, the controller undeforms the flexible display, and wherein, in response to the flexible remote controller being undeformed after the threshold time elapses, the controller maintains the deformation of the flexible display.
