Abstract

The present invention discloses a refrigerator including a refrigerator main body, a refrigerator door for opening and closing the refrigerator mainbody, a hinge assembly for connecting the refrigerator door to the refrigerator main body to be openable and closable, a hinge cover (H 1 ) for covering the hinge assembly, and a multimedia device positioned inside the hinge cover (H 1 ). This configuration can improve the spatial efficiency of the refrigerator. In addition, the multimedia device has higher stability when it is positioned outside the refrigerator than inside the refrigerator of high humidity.
