A refrigerator, comprising:

• a main body having a refrigerating chamber and a freezing chamber formed therein, the refrigerating chamber being positioned atop the freezing chamber;
• a refrigerating chamber door for opening/closing the refrigerating chamber;
• an ice making assembly installed in the refrigerating chamber door;
• a dispenser located on a front of the refrigerating chamber door for dispensing ice from the ice making assembly, the dispenser including:
• a dispenser base positioned in a recess formed in the front of the refrigerating chamber door so as to define a space at which water or ice is dispensed, wherein the dispenser base comprises:
• an upper wall having an ice outlet and a water outlet formed therein;
• a vertical wall that extends vertically downward from an outer peripheral edge of the upper part, the vertical wall being substantially parallel to the front of the refrigerating chamber door and having an exterior side that faces an exterior of the refrigerator and an interior side that faces an interior of the refrigerating chamber door;
• and
• a bottom wall that extends horizontally from a bottom peripheral edge of the vertical wall, wherein the vertical wall has a rounded contour that extends rearward from an open front face of the dispenser base;
• a dispenser cover that extends along a peripheral portion of the open front face of the dispenser base, the dispenser cover including a display configured to indicate an operation state of at least one of the ice making assembly, the dispenser, or the refrigerator;
• and
• a sub-PCB installed on the interior side of the vertical wall of the dispenser base such that the dispenser base shields the sub-PCB from water or ice being dispensed from the dispenser, wherein the sub-PCB controls operation of at least one of the ice making assembly or the dispenser.
