         2 . The clothes-treatment apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the air slit extends along a width direction of the accommodation space and sprays the compressed air in a linear form in a direction perpendicular to a surface of the clothes. 
     
     
         3 . The clothes-treatment apparatus as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the air slit is comprises a plurality of the air slits, and the plurality of air slits are arranged at regular intervals along the width direction of the accommodation space. 
     
     
         4 . The clothes-treatment apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a moving unit configured to be coupled to the first and second air spraying units to vertically move the first and second air spraying units. 
     
     
         5 . The clothes-treatment apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the steam spraying unit comprises a plurality of the steam spraying units, and the plurality of steam spraying units include first and second steam spraying units disposed to face each other with the clothes interposed therebetween and simultaneously spraying the steam toward the clothes while simultaneously moving. 
     
     
         6 . The clothes-treatment apparatus as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the first and second air spraying units and the first and second steam spraying units simultaneously spray the compressed air and the steam while moving together with each other, and the first and second air spraying units are disposed behind the first and second steam spraying units when the first and second air spraying units and the first and second steam spraying units move. 
     
     
         7 . The clothes-treatment apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein each of the first and second air spraying units includes:
 an air blowing hose connected to a compressed air generator; and   an air sprayer connected to the air blowing hose and extending along a width direction of the accommodation space, and   the air slit is formed in the air sprayer.   
     
     
         8 . The clothes-treatment apparatus as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the air sprayer includes a protrusion portion protruding toward the clothes along a length direction thereof, and
 the air slit is arranged along a tip of the protrusion portion.   
     
     
         9 . The clothes-treatment apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the steam spraying unit includes:
 a steam transferring hose connected to a steam generator; and   a steam sprayer connected to the steam transferring hose and extending along a width direction of the accommodation space, and   the steam sprayer includes a plurality of steam nozzles arranged along a length direction thereof.   
     
     
         10 . The clothes-treatment apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a hot air circulating unit configured to circulate hot air in the accommodation space. 
     
     
         11 . The clothes-treatment apparatus as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein the hot air circulating unit includes:
 a hot air generator; and   an air blowing unit blowing the hot air generated in the hot air generator to the accommodation space.   
     
     
         12 . A control method of a clothes-treatment apparatus, comprising:
 disposing a clothes supporting unit supporting clothes in an accommodation space of a case;   spraying steam to a front surface and a rear surface of the clothes through first and second steam spraying units disposed to face each other with the clothes interposed therebetween and simultaneously moving vertically along the accommodation space; and   simultaneously spraying linear compressed air to the front surface and the rear surface of the clothes through first and second air spraying units disposed to face each other with the clothes interposed therebetween and simultaneously moving vertically along the accommodation space.   
     
     
         13 . The control method of a clothes-treatment apparatus as claimed in  claim 12 , wherein in the simultaneous spraying of the linear compressed air, the compressed air is simultaneously sprayed to the front surface and the rear surface of the clothes in a direction perpendicular to a surface of the clothes. 
     
     
         14 . The control method of a clothes-treatment apparatus as claimed in  claim 12 , further comprising circulating hot air in the accommodation space. 
     
     
         15 . The control method of a clothes-treatment apparatus as claimed in  claim 12 , wherein in the simultaneous spraying of the linear compressed air, the first and second air spraying units and the first and second steam spraying units simultaneously spray the compressed air and the steam while moving together with each other, and the first and second air spraying units are disposed behind the first and second steam spraying units when the first and second air spraying units and the first and second steam spraying units move.
