1. A robot comprising:
a driver;
a camera; and
a processor configured to:
during an interaction session in which a first user is identified, identify whether interruption by a second user occurs during the interaction session with the first user,
based on identifying that the interruption by the second user occurred during the interaction session with the first user, control the driver such that the robot performs a feedback motion directed to the second user such that the robot is not facing the second user.
