an inner microphone provided on a first surface of the electronic apparatus;
an outer microphone disposed on a second surface opposite the first surface; and
a processor configured to:
receive a voice signal of a counterpart and a voice signal of a wearer of the electronic apparatus that are input through the inner microphone and the outer microphone, wherein a size of the voice signal of the wearer input through the inner microphone is greater than a size of the voice signal of the wearer input through the outer microphone,
based on the size of the voice signal of the wearer input through the inner microphone being greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold, remove the voice signal of the wearer input through the outer microphone, and
amplify the voice signal of the counterpart input through the outer microphone and from which the voice signal of the wearer is removed and output the amplified voice signal.
