ABSTRACT:
A refrigerator is provided, by which cold air can be effectively prevented from leaking from a storage room. The refrigerator includes a refrigerator body having an opening and a storage room provided therein, a door closing/opening, a sealing part provided to at least one of the door and the refrigerator body to prevent a cold air from leaking from the storage room, and a flow cutoff part provided inside the sealing part to prevent the cold air flowing toward the sealing part from the storage room. Accordingly, by cutting of the cold air leakage together with the sealing part, energy efficiency of the refrigerator can be raised.
