Abstract: The present invention relates to a detergent box in a washing machine, and more particularly, to a detergent box in which a structure of the detergent box to be placed in a front of the washing machine is modified for preventing the detergent box from falling off even if the washing machine is tilted or shaken, and enabling a user to make an easy notice of proper placement of the detergent box. The detergent box of the present invention includes a stopper, and a rib having an elastic slot formed therein. The detergent box holds the detergent, and the dispenser is mounted in the washing machine for placing the detergent box therein. The dispenser has a recess for seating the stopper therein as the detergent box is placed in the dispenser. The rib provides an elastic force to the stopper. For providing a comparatively soft elastic force, the rib has an elastic slot.
