A method of controlling a refrigerator having a shaved ice discharger to discharge shaved ice produced within the refrigerator to the outside. The refrigerator includes a shaved-ice maker equipped within a freezing compartment to produce shaved ice, a shaved ice discharge port to discharge the shaved ice produced by the shaved-ice maker to the outside through the freezing compartment door, and a shaved ice discharger connected with the shaved ice discharge port to discharge the shaved ice produced by the shaved-ice maker to the outside of the refrigerator. Since the refrigerator is controlled to maintain the open state of the shaved ice discharge port during a predetermined shaved ice discharging time set corresponding to a selected amount of the shaved ice, it is not necessary to continuously apply external force to the lever, thereby improving convenience in use of the shaved-ice maker.
