Abstract: An apparatus includes a key providing unit to arrange one key group in a main touch area and to arrange remaining key groups in sub-touch area, a touch screen to display a virtual keyboard and to receive an input, and an input recognizing unit to recognize a user-inputted direction gesture. The key providing unit decreases the size of the key group in the main touch area and moves it to the sub-touch area, enlarges a size of a key group corresponding to the direction of the direction gesture and moved into the main touch area. A method to display the virtual keyboard also includes decreasing the size of the key group in the main touch area and rearranging it into the sub-touch area, enlarging a size of a key group in the sub-touch area receiving a click input, and arranging it into the main touch area.
