1. A turbocharger-based engine system, comprising: an intake system that includes an air cleaner and supplies an external air into an engine;an exhaust system that includes at least one or more filter and discharges an exhaust gas discharged from the engine to the outside;a turbocharger that is operated by the exhaust gas and oversupplies the external air supplied into the air cleaner;a supercharger that forms another flow of external air diverging from an external air flow section of the intake system;an exhaust gas recirculation system that includes an exhaust gas recirculation line connecting the exhaust system to a compressor of the turbocharger to send the flow of the exhaust gas diverging from the exhaust system to the turbocharger; anda valve unit that changes a mixing ratio of the exhaust gas and the external gas oversupplied through the turbocharger by changing the flow of the external air, the another flow of external air, and the flow of the exhaust gas at a front end of the compressor in the turbocharger by control of an engine control unit;wherein the valve unit includes: an exhaust gas recirculation valve that selectively allows the exhaust gas diverging from an exhaust line fluid-connected to the turbocharger to flow to the exhaust gas recirculation line;a bypass valve that allows the external air introduced through an intake line of the intake system to flow to the exhaust gas recirculation line, wherein the air cleaner is fluid-connected to the intake line; anda channel control valve that allows the another flow of external air sucked through the supercharger to send to the exhaust gas recirculation line; and wherein the exhaust gas recirculation valve and the channel control valve are integrally opened/closed in the opposite way and the bypass valve is independently opened/closed. 2. The turbocharger-based engine system as defined in claim 1, wherein the supercharger forms the another flow of external air diverging from the flow of the external air that is formed at a rear end of the air cleaner of the intake system and directly sends the flow of external air to the exhaust gas coming from the exhaust gas recirculation line. 3. The turbocharger-based engine system as defined in claim 2, wherein the supercharger is an electric supercharger. 4. The turbocharger-based engine system as defined in claim 1, wherein the supercharger forms the another flow of external air diverging from the flow of the external air that is formed at a rear end of the air cleaner of the intake system and connects the flow of external air from an intake connection line diverging from the supercharger to the exhaust gas coming from the exhaust gas recirculation line. 5. The turbocharger-based engine system as defined in claim 4, wherein the supercharger is a mechanical supercharger using the power from the engine. 6. The turbocharger-based engine system as defined in claim 1, wherein the EGR is a low-pressure exhaust gas recirculation and the exhaust gas recirculation line diverges from a rear end of the filter of the exhaust system. 7. The turbocharger-based engine system as defined in claim 1, wherein the exhaust gas recirculation valve and the channel control valve are operated by a valve operating unit that is controlled by the engine control unit. 8. The turbocharger-based engine system as defined in claim 7, wherein the valve operating unit includes: an actuator that directly changes the open amount of any one of the exhaust gas recirculation valve and the channel control valve; anda valve link that connects the exhaust gas recirculation valve or the channel control valve to both ends such that the other valve is closed when any one of the valves is opened. 9. The turbocharger-based engine system as defined in claim 7, wherein the valve operating unit includes: a valve link that connects the exhaust gas recirculation valve or the channel control valve to both ends such that the other valve is closed when any one of the valves is opened; andan actuator that directly operates the valve link. 10. A method of improving fuel efficiency by using a turbocharger-based engine system, comprising: a) detecting a vehicle information according to an operation of an engine;b) determining an engine operation section from the acquired vehicle information wherein the engine operation section is a turbo-lag and low torque section, a mid-load section, and a mid/high-load section;c) actuating a channel control valve to supply only an external air flowing through a supercharger into the engine, while the engine is operating in the turbo-lag and low torque section,actuating the channel control valve and controlling an exhaust gas recirculation valve to supply an air gas mixture of the external air flowing through an intake system with one of the external air flowing through the supercharger and the exhaust gas flowing through an exhaust gas recirculation line into the engine, while the engine is operating in the mid-load section, andactuating a bypass valve in an intake line and controlling the exhaust gas recirculation valve to supply an air gas mixture of the exhaust gas flowing through the exhaust gas recirculation line with the external air flowing through the intake line to the intake system into the engine, and actuating the channel control valve for not supplying the external air through the supercharger, while the engine is operating in the mid/high-load section. 11.
