         2 . The protecting cover of  claim 1 , wherein the second cover includes a holder seat, the holder is inserted into the holder seat and coupled to the second cover. 
     
     
         3 . The protecting cover of  claim 1 , further comprising: a pair of arms each including a first fastening hole formed at an end of the supporting member, and a second fastening hole formed at an end of the rotary member, and
 wherein the holder further includes a friction member disposed through the first fastening hole and the second fastening hole when the end of the rotary member is positioned between the pair of arms of the supporting member, and configured to generate friction when the rotary member is rotated with respect to the supporting member.   
     
     
         4 . The protecting cover of  claim 1 , wherein the rotary member includes an adhesive member disposed on a first side of the rotary member to stably seat the electronic device. 
     
     
         5 . The protecting cover of  claim 1 , wherein the rotary member includes a second magnetic substance disposed on a first side of the rotary member and configured to restrict movement of the rotary member by generating magnetic attraction with the first magnetic substance when the rotary member is positioned within a threshold to the end of the first cover. 
     
     
         6 . The protecting cover of  claim 1 , wherein the supporting member includes a rotary member seat formed on a first side of the supporting member such that the rotary member coupled to be rotatable with respect to the supporting member is inserted therein to overlap the supporting member. 
     
     
         7 . The protecting cover of  claim 5 , wherein the supporting member includes a third magnetic substance disposed on a first side of the supporting member and configured to restrict movement of the rotary member by generating magnetic attraction with the second magnetic substance when the rotary member overlaps the supporting member. 
     
     
         8 . The protecting cover of  claim 1 , wherein an end of the first cover and an end of the second cover include a curved shape. 
     
     
         9 . The protecting cover of  claim 1 , wherein the second cover includes a fourth magnetic substance disposed at an end of the second cover and configured to restrict movement of the first cover and the second cover by generating magnetic attraction with the first magnetic substance when the first cover and the second cover are positioned within a threshold to each other. 
     
     
         10 . The protecting cover of  claim 1 , wherein an end of the supporting member and an end of the rotary member include a curved shape that is similar to a curved end of the second cover. 
     
     
         11 . A protecting cover for an electronic device, the protecting cover comprising:
 a first cover including a first magnetic substance at a curved end and configured to protect a first side of the electronic device;   a second cover connected to the first cover through a connecting portion and includes a second curved end and configured to protect a second side opposite the first side of the electronic device; and   a holder including a supporting member and a rotary member, the supporting member is coupled to an inner side of the second cover, the rotary member is coupled to the supporting member, wherein the rotary member is configured to rotate with respect to supporting member and hold the electronic device,   wherein, the curved end of the first cover and the curved end of the second cover are configured to protect a third side of the electronic device, and the connecting portion is configured to protect a fourth side of the electronic device, and   wherein the first cover and the second cover are moveably hinged along the connecting portion.   
     
     
         12 . The protecting cover of  claim 11 , wherein the second cover includes an internal side and an external side, the internal side includes a holder seat, wherein the holder is inserted into the holder seat. 
     
     
         13 . The protecting cover of  claim 11 , wherein the supporting member comprises a first arm and a second arm protruding from an end of the supporting member towards the rotary member and a space separating the first arm and the second arm, the first arm includes a first fastening hole and the second arm includes a second fastening hole, wherein the first fastening hole faces the second fastening hole;
 wherein the rotary member is positioned in the space between the first arm and the second arm and comprises a third fastening hole positioned along a central axis with the first fastening hole and the second fastening hole; and   wherein the holder comprises a friction member disposed through the first fastening hole, the second fastening hole, and the third fastening hole when the end of the rotary member is positioned between the first arm and the second arm, the friction member is configured to generate friction when the rotary member is rotated with respect to the supporting member.   
     
     
         14 . The protecting cover of  claim 11 , wherein the rotary member comprises an adhesive member disposed on a first side of the rotary member, the adhesive member includes a nano suction that is affixed to the electronic device. 
     
     
         15 . The protecting cover of  claim 11 , wherein the rotary member comprises a second magnetic substance disposed on a first side of the rotary member and configured to restrict movement of the rotary member by generating magnetic attraction with the first magnetic substance when the rotary member is positioned within a threshold to the curved end of the first cover. 
     
     
         16 . The protecting cover of  claim 15 , wherein the rotary member supports the electronic device at one or a plurality of angles based on magnetic attraction that is generated when the first magnetic substance is within a threshold distance from the second magnetic substance.
