A refrigerator to provide information of completion of an ice making operation performed in an ice making container or ice separating information via an electric unit thereof is provided. Completion of the ice making operation is determined based on a temperature of a storage compartment and/or an ice making time. Providing information of completion of the ice making operation or ice separating information allows a user to easily know completion of the ice making operation so that the user can conveniently separate ice cubes from the ice making container at an appropriate time, and prevents unwanted conglomeration of ice cubes stored in an ice storage container due to insufficient ice making. Further, when the ice cubes are automatically separated from the ice making container, the electric unit of the refrigerator provides information informing the user that an ice separating operation is being performed.
