1. A slidable electronic device comprising:
a first housing and a second housing configured to be slidable with respect to the first housing;
a flexible display module including a flexible display comprising a first area configured to be seen in a state in which the second housing is slid-in with respect to the first housing, and a second area configured to be at least partially drawn out to the outside to be seen in a state in which the second housing is slid-out with respect to the first housing; and
a wireless communication circuit,
wherein the second housing comprises a first conductive pattern electrically connected to the wireless communication circuit and a second conductive pattern physically separated from the first conductive pattern and configured to operate as an antenna ground.
