The directional switch unit includes: a directional slide part within the housing unit; a directional switch disposed on the substrate, and configured to be operated by a change in the position of the directional slide part to generate a signal indicating the change in the position of the directional slide part; and a directional return part. The directional switch includes: a directional switch housing; and a directional switch knob partially exposed to the outside from one surface of the directional switch housing to contact with the directional slide part so that when the directional switch knob is pressedly rotated pivotally about an axis parallel with the substrate, it is received in the directional switch housing.
