Abstract
A refrigerator is proposed. In the refrigerator, a cool air passage for a freezing compartment which guides the flow of cool air to the freezing compartment, and a cool air passage for an ice-making compartment which guides the flow of cool air to the ice-making compartment partially share the cool air with each other. 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.
