1. A method of customizing a user interface of a mobile communication terminal according to a user preference and a theme pack content, in a system including a wireless access network, a mobile communication network, and a content-providing server, the wireless access network being a ground-based infrastructure for wirelessly exchanging data with the mobile communication terminal based on a predetermined protocol and for relaying a theme pack service in which the user interface of the mobile communication terminal is capable of being altered according to the user preference,the mobile communication network including a set of communication equipment for providing voice telephone and data exchange services and for relaying the theme pack service to the mobile communication terminal,the content-providing server for providing the mobile communication terminal with the theme pack content corresponding to a multimedia content for using the theme pack service, the method comprising:(a) interworking with the content-providing server;(b) generating the theme pack content selectively formed according to the user preference through the content-providing server;(c) downloading the theme pack content; and(d) changing the user interface by using the theme pack content, including:(d1) separating an original background screen image and an original menu configuration image from the user interface, and temporarily storing separated original background screen image and original menu configuration image in a virtual area of a program storage provided in the mobile communication terminal;(d2) extracting an alteration background screen image from the theme pack content, overlapping the alteration background screen image with the original menu configuration image, and transparently processing an overlapping portion; and(d3) applying ring tone and effect sound included in the theme pack content to the user interface. 2. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the step (b) comprises: (b1) uploading the multimedia content stored in the mobile communication terminal for generation of the theme pack content; and(b2) editing the multimedia content provided in a finished product by a content provider according to the user preference, thereby generating the theme pack content. 3. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein, in the method, only an original menu configuration image is altered using the theme pack content without altering an original background screen image forming the user interface, or both the original background screen image and the original menu configuration image are altered using the theme pack content for display. 4. A system for customizing a user interface, the system comprising: a mobile communication terminal having the user interface;a wireless access network being a ground-based infrastructure for wirelessly exchanging data with the mobile communication terminal based on a predetermined protocol and for relaying a theme pack service in which the user interface of the mobile communication terminal is capable of being customized according to a user preference;a mobile communication network including a set of communication equipment for providing voice telephone and data exchange services and for relaying the theme pack service to the mobile communication terminal; anda content-providing server for providing the mobile communication terminal with a theme pack content corresponding to a multimedia content for using the theme pack service,the mobile communication terminal being configured to generate the user interface, according to the theme pack content from the content-providing server, by separating an original background screen image and an original menu configuration image from the user interface, extracting an alteration background screen image from the theme pack content, and transparently processing an overlapped portion of the alternation background screen image and the original menu configuration image. 5. The system as claimed in claim 4, wherein the theme pack content includes all or a part of a background screen image, ring tone, or effect sound forming the user interface according to the preference of the user. 6. The system as claimed in claim 4, wherein the content-providing server generates the theme pack content by using the multimedia content uploaded through a wired/wireless terminal accessible to an Internet, transmits the generated theme pack content to the mobile communication terminal, and causes the user interface to be altered according to the user preference.
