Abstract
A refrigerator includes a cool air passage for guiding the flow of cool air to a freezing compartment and a cool air passage for guiding the flow of cool air to an ice-making compartment that partially share the cool air. Through the sharing of cool air, the amount of cool air supplied to the freezing compartment is increased and sufficient cool air is supplied to the refrigerating compartment. Accordingly, sufficient cool air is supplied to the refrigerating compartment, the freezing compartment, and the ice-making compartment even with a single evaporator.
