1. A user terminal device, comprising:
a flexible display configured to be divided into a first area and a second area larger than the first area with reference to a folding line along which the flexible display is folded,
a cover disposed on a rear side of the flexible display;
a detector configured to detect a user interaction on the flexible display;
one or more processors configured to:
based on a folded state of the flexible display being folded along the folding line such that the first area of the flexible display is provided as a rear surface of the user terminal device and the second area of the flexible display is provided as a front surface of the user terminal device, control the flexible display to display a first screen on the second area; and
in response to detecting first user interaction on the first area and second user interaction on the second area through the detector, control the first screen displayed on the second area to be changed a second screen.
