To this end, the client 2 and the server 4 use the same protocol (for example, TCP / IP), and each have a communication connection device for the Internet. Since the client is a wired or wireless communication network, the user can connect to the server through the mobile telephone terminal. That is, the client is a user terminal including a connection device, a web browser and an input / output device for accessing the Internet.

The server 4 is a computer managed by an Internet business company and provides predetermined information or services to a plurality of clients through the Internet or a communication network.

The server requests 110 a login from a visitor attempting to connect. Existing members who have logged in will continue the program, and new users will be registered by filling out a certain form and will be given an ID (120).

Visitors who do not want to join the membership can proceed 170 or disconnect 180 other programs provided on the site. Other programs may be general programs provided by other sites, so description thereof is omitted.

The server outputs various media on the monitor of the registered user, and suggests 140 to select one of them. The media provided by the server may be a number of different media or images that allow one to guess personal preferences or tastes. Film, music or literature may be the medium.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, only one type of media is provided. Hereinafter, a description will be made based on a movie on behalf of other media.

The server provides a variety of movies to the user along with his brief descriptions (such as cover art, lead actor, director, releaser, release date or story). Such data is built into the service database by service provider input.

When the user selects a movie and sends a signal to the server's input device, the server prompts for input regarding personal matters including the personal profile. In response to the above request, the user inputs personal matters 150 to proceed with the operation program 170.

Personal matters can include one's personality, hobbies, motivation to choose the movie, the required reason, or any other introduction to himself.
