A refrigerator includes a main body, a first storage chamber and a second storage chamber provided inside the main body with front sides thereof open. An evaporator is arranged inside the main body and is configured to generate cold air and arranged behind the first storage chamber. A first duct is configured to supply the cold air generated from the evaporator to the first storage chamber and a second duct is configured to supply cold air to the second storage chamber. A connection duct is configured to connect the first duct and the second duct to cause the cold air inside the first duct to flow into the second duct, and a damper is configured to selectively open and close the connection duct. The damper is provided inside the first duct, and the second duct has a flat front surface.

Refrigerator

Provided is a refrigerator including a main body, a first storage chamber and a second storage chamber provided inside the main body with front sides thereof open, an evaporator, while being arranged inside the main body, configured to generate cold air and arranged behind the first storage chamber, a first duct configured to supply the cold air generated from the evaporator to the first storage chamber, a second duct configured to supply cold air to the second storage chamber, and a connection duct configured to connect the first duct and the second duct to cause the cold air inside the first duct to flow into the second duct, and a damper configured to selectively open and dose the connection duct, wherein the damper is provided inside the first duct, and the second duct has a front surface in a form of a flat surface.
