A refrigerator is disclosed. The refrigerator includes a main body which has a cooling chamber and a freezing chamber, a storage chamber (12) which is provided in the cooling chamber to store foodstuffs, an irradiation device (30) which irradiates light within a visible light region corre-spondingly to color of the foodstuffs stored in the storage chamber (12), an optical deodorization module (40) which includes an ultraviolet light irradiation device (41) which is mounted to the storage chamber (12) to irradiate ultraviolet light and a photocatalyst filter (43) which receives the ultraviolet from the ultraviolet light irradiation device (41 ) and is coated with a photocatalyst agent, and a control unit which controls the irradiation device (30) and the ultraviolet light irradiation device (41). L'invention concerne un réfrigérateur comprenant un corps principal comportant un compartiment de réfrigération et un compartiment de congélation, un compartiment de stockage situé dans le compartiment de réfrigération destiné à stocker des aliments, un dispositif d'émission qui émet une lumière à l'intérieur de la zone de lumière visible correspondant à la couleur des aliments stockés dans le compartiment de stockage, un module de désodorisation optique comprenant un dispositif d'émission de lumière ultraviolette qui est monté dans le compartiment de stockage pour émettre de la lumière ultraviolette et un filtre photocatalyseur qui reçoit la lumière ultraviolette provenant du dispositif d'émission de lumière ultraviolette et qui est revêtu d'un agent photocatalyseur, et une unité de commande qui commande le dispositif d'émission de lumière visible et le dispositif d'émission de lumière ultraviolette.
