an ice making tray disposed in the freezing compartment, the ice making tray in which ice is formed;
an ice bucket disposed in the freezing compartment, the ice bucket configured to store the ice after the ice is separated from the ice making tray;
a full ice detection lever configured to rotate toward the ice bucket to detect whether the ice bucket is fully filled with the ice stored in the ice bucket;
a manipulation lever configured to be manipulated from an outside of an ice maker which includes the ice bucket;
a stopper configured to rotate in conjunction with a movement of the manipulation lever when the manipulation lever is manipulated and interfere with a rotation of the full ice detection lever toward the ice bucket;
a cover on which the manipulation lever is mounted, the manipulation lever being moveable; and
an elastic member having one end fixed to the cover and another end fixed to the manipulation lever;
