A method for executing a menu in a mobile terminal characterized by: displaying a first screen on a display unit of the mobile terminal; changing the first screen to a lock-up state in a case there is no touch input or a key input for a predetermined period of time; detecting whether an audio output device connection signal is generated by an external audio output device being connected to the mobile terminal while the first screen is displayed; releasing the lock-up state when the audio output device connection signal is generated in the lock-up state; displaying a second screen including a broadcasting menu if the audio output device connection signal is generated; detecting whether the external audio output device is disconnected from the mobile terminal while broadcast contents corresponding to the broadcasting menu are displayed; determining whether a function calling for an audio output is operated when the external audio output device is separated; controllably allowing the operation to be driven in a preset audio output mode when it is determined that the function calling for an audio output is operated; beginning to store the currently-displayed broadcast contents on a memory of the mobile terminal while displaying the broadcast contents when the external audio output device is disconnected; displaying a first notification message for indicating the broadcast contents being stored and a broadcasting storage bar for indicating an amount of storable broadcast contents, the first notification message and the status bar displayed on the first screen; detecting that the external audio output device is re-connected to the mobile terminal while the first screen is displayed; displaying a third screen including the stored broadcasting contents on the display unit; and displaying a storage broadcasting display icon on one side of the third screen. displaying a first screen on a display unit of the mobile terminal; changing the first screen to a lock-up state in a case there is no touch input or a key input for a predetermined period of time; detecting whether an audio output device connection signal is generated by an external audio output device being connected to the mobile terminal while the first screen is displayed; releasing the lock-up state when the audio output device connection signal is generated in the lock-up state; displaying a second screen including a broadcasting menu if the audio output device connection signal is generated; detecting whether the external audio output device is disconnected from the mobile terminal while broadcast contents corresponding to the broadcasting menu are displayed; determining whether a function calling for an audio output is operated when the external audio output device is separated; controllably allowing the operation to be driven in a preset audio output mode when it is determined that the function calling for an audio output is operated; beginning to store the currently-displayed broadcast contents on a memory of the mobile terminal while displaying the broadcast contents when the external audio output device is disconnected; displaying a first notification message for indicating the broadcast contents being stored and a broadcasting storage bar for indicating an amount of storable broadcast contents, the first notification message and the status bar displayed on the first screen; detecting that the external audio output device is re-connected to the mobile terminal while the first screen is displayed; displaying a third screen including the stored broadcasting contents on the display unit; and displaying a storage broadcasting display icon on one side of the third screen.
