1. An electronic device, comprising:
an actuator configured to move the electronic device;
a sensor configured to obtain position information indicating a first position where the electronic device is positioned;
a projection assembly comprising light emitting circuitry;
at least one processor comprising processing circuitry; and
memory comprising one or more storage mediums storing instructions,
wherein the instructions, when executed by one or more of the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to:
in response to an input for playing a media content stored in the memory, identify an external object corresponding to a visual object included in the media content;
in a first state in which the external object adjacent to the electronic device is identified, emit a light representing the media content, facing a direction adjacent to the external object, by controlling the projection assembly, based on the position information; and
in a second state distinct from the first state;
based on identifying a second position where the media content is obtained, move the electronic device from the first position to the second position by controlling the actuator based on the position information; and
emit the light representing the media content at the second position moved from the first position, by controlling the projection assembly.
