Abstract: The present invention relates to a door duct assembly for a refrigerator. In the present invention, the cold air delivered from a cold air duct of a refrigerator main body to a door 30 through a cold air communication portion 55 is discharged into a storage space through cold air vents 61 formed in a flow guide 60. The cold air communication portion 55 is formed in a door basket 40 or the flow guide 60. The door baskets 40 or the flow guide 60 is mounted on a door liner 33 defining a rear surface of the door 30. According to the present invention, there are advantages in that it is relatively easy to manufacture a door, the cold air flows uniformly in the door, the strength of the flow guide for defining a flow channel in the door is relatively increased, and dewdrops are prevented from being formed upstream of the flow channel.
