1. A wearable electronic device comprising:
a housing disposed and configured to face a user's face when a user wears the wearable electronic device;
a first display disposed at least partially in the housing and configured to provide visual information to an eye of the user;
a first heat conductive member, comprising thermally conductive material, disposed and configured to face the user's face with at least the first display interposed therebetween when a user wears the wearable electronic device, wherein the first heat conductive member includes a first portion substantially parallel to the first display and a second portion bent from the first portion;
an integrated circuit chip disposed in the housing;
a third heat conductive member, comprising thermally conductive material, disposed between at least the integrated circuit chip and the first display;
a first heat dissipation fan disposed between at least the first heat conductive member and the third heat conductive member; and
a first heat dissipation fin, which may be part of one of the heat conductive members, disposed in a movement path of the air to be discharged by the first heat dissipation fan to an outside of the wearable electronic device,
wherein the wearable electronic device is configured so that heat generated from the first display is to be transferred to the outside of the wearable electronic device through a path including the first heat conductive member, the first heat dissipation fan, and the first heat dissipation fin, and
wherein the wearable electronic device is configured so that heat generated from the integrated circuit chip is to be transferred to the outside of the wearable electronic device via at least the first heat dissipation fan through a path including the third heat conductive member and the first heat dissipation fin.
