1. A wearable device comprising:
a display;
a sensor;
a camera;
a communication circuit;
memory, including one or more storage mediums, storing instructions; and
at least one processor comprising processing circuitry,
wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor individually or collectively, cause the wearable device to:
obtain, through the camera, an image representing an external environment of the wearable device, wherein the external environment includes a plurality of objects;
identify a context representing a situation of a user worn by the wearable device based on information obtained through the sensor and the communication circuit;
identify a position of an object associated with the identified context among the plurality of objects;
display a first visual object, which is at least partially superimposed on the object based on verifying that the object is positioned within a first area corresponding to a gaze direction of the user in a field of view (FoV) area of the wearable device;
display by blinking the first visual object based on verifying that the object is positioned within a second area excluding the first area in the FoV area; and
display a second visual object representing the object on a point in the FoV area based on verifying that the object is positioned within a third area outside of the FoV area.
