However, even if the multimedia message developed and commercialized so far is transmitted to the counterpart user's terminal, it is used only as a message like a short message after reception, and an environment in which the user can apply variously using the received multimedia message is not established. It is not true.

Accordingly, there is a need for a system and a method for increasing convenience of a service subscriber by allowing a user to apply and use various multimedia messages received from a counterpart terminal.

The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to solve this problem, among the multimedia messaging (Multi-Media Messing) that includes at least two or more of audio (ringtone) and video (video), image (background) and text Another object of the present invention is to provide a caller information display service providing system using multimedia messaging and a method for providing a specific multimedia messaging selected by a sending client to a receiving client terminal.
