A method for providing data service channels in cable broadcasting comprises steps of: allowing a cable broadcasting transmitting unit to include channel information into a data service signal and transmit the data service signal(S1); and allowing a cable broadcasting receiving unit to receive the data service signal including the channel information and display the data service signal through a channel corresponding to the channel number key signal of a remote controller(S3). The data service signal is related to one of living, finance, entertainment, and game.
