The present invention relates to a method for automatically converting LANGuages in an internet of things (IoT) product. The method includes the steps of: executing an application program for specific IoT products in a terminal; transmitting the basic setting LANGuage of the corresponding terminal and the set LANGuage of the currently executed application to a server; storing the set LANGuage received from the terminal to the server; transmitting the set LANGuage received from the terminal, stored in the server, to the IoT products; determining whether the LANGuage setting state of the IoT products is in an auto-mode; setting a forced setting LANGuage without executing a LANGuage synchronization when the LANGuage setting state is not in an auto-mode and terminating the operation; determining whether the IoT products are in a state enabling communication with the server and, at the same time, receive a set LANGuage from the server or not when the LANGuage setting state of the IoT products is in the auto-mode; determining whether the set LANGuage received from the server is supported by the IoT products when the IoT products are in a state enabling communication with the server and receive the set LANGuage from the server; setting the LANGuage received from the server when the received set LANGuage is supported by the IoT product; and transmitting a LANGuage setting completion signal to the server before terminating the operation. Accordingly, the present invention can synchronize the display LANGuage and voice guidance LANGuage automatically in linkage with a terminal without manually setting the LANGuage of the corresponding country on the IoT products supporting multiple LANGuages, thereby enabling users to conveniently use the IoT products while significantly increasing the reliability of the IoT products in accordance with the merchantability and quality.
