A refrigerator and a control method thereof in which a plurality of storage compartments are cooled based on their cooling priorities, which are determined in accordance with a set temperature or thermal load of each storage compartment, whereby the storage compartments can maintain high humidity. The refrigerator for keeping the average humidity of the storage compartments high includes a compressor, the plurality of storage compartments, a plurality of evaporators and fans corresponding to the plurality of storage compartments, respectively, temperature sensors for detecting a temperature of each of the plurality of storage compartments, and a controller adapted to compare the temperature, detected by the respective temperature sensors, with a set temperature of each of the storage compartments so as to determine whether or not it is necessary to cool each of the storage compartments, and, when it is necessary to cool the plurality of storage compartments, to assign cooling priories to the storage compartments to be cooled from lowest to highest set temperatures, to control the fans of the storage compartments to be cooled in accordance with the assigned cooling priorities
