PURPOSE: An electronic device and a control method thereof are provided to easily hand over the control on the gestures to the other users.

The system presents an item corresponding to a group of controller candidates, who correspond to the obtained gesture (S120) and obtains the gesture of the controller (S130). In response to the controller's gesture, the system changes the display status of a second item and displays the second item (S140), and selects one of the first items according to the changed status of the second item (S150). Finally, the gesture control of the controller candidate who corresponds to the first item selected by a user is transferred.
