An air duct is formed in the housing for air flow between the outside air and the receiving space. The light source is installed on the upper panel and illuminates the receiving space.

According to the prior art document 1, since the air inside the container is ventilated to the outside air, the possibility that the environment (temperature and humidity) inside the container is affected by the environment (temperature and humidity) outside the container increases. In other words, it may be difficult to control the temperature and humidity inside the container.

For example, according to the preceding document 1, the air inside the container is simply ventilated to the outside air, so when the humidity of the outside air is high, such as during the rainy season, the humidity of the accommodation space can be maintained continuously high. This air changes the color and shape of shoes stored in the container and can cause shoes to be contaminated by mold and bacteria that tend to grow in high temperatures and humidity.

As such, in that Prior Literature 1 does not consider technology for maintaining the temperature and humidity inside the container at an optimal state, there is a risk that the shoes may be deformed or contaminated during the user's use of the container.

In addition, according to the prior art document 1, the inside of the container can be seen only through the door panel, and the inside of the container cannot be seen from the left or right side of the container, so there is a significant limitation in enhancing the display effect of shoes.
