PURPOSE: A display device and a controlling method thereof are provided to move a cursor which is displayed on an image to a desired position based on a movement signal which is received from an input unit. CONSTITUTION: An image processing unit(120) displays an image which includes a predetermined object and a cursor in a display unit(130). If a first input coordinate which is inputted when opening an input and a second input coordinate which is inputted when completing the input in an input unit(200) are received through a communication unit(140), the image processing unit generates the movement event of the cursor towards the object according to the position within the image of the object about the movement data which corresponds to the first and second input coordinates.
