Abstract: The present invention provides a mobile terminal comprising: a terminal main body comprising a front case and an internal frame forming an internal area including an inundation area in which terminal water flows in and a waterproof area in which the inflow of water is blocked; and a key module mounted on the terminal main body and forming, by pressing, a control command, wherein the key module comprises: a first unit disposed in the inundation area and moved by an external force; a second unit disposed in the waterproof area and a signal generated by pressing; an elastic deformation layer having one region elastically deformed by movement of the first unit such that the second unit is pressed by the first unit; and a through hole, which allows the elastic deformation layer and the front case to be attached so as to partition the inundation area and the waterproof area and through which the first unit penetrates.
