A refrigerating controlling method that is capable of independently controlling cooling systems separately mounted in freezing and refrigerating chambers, each of which includes an evaporator and a fan, and reducing the number of starts of a compressor and the fans, thereby decreasing power consumption and noise and increasing service lives of the compressor and the fans. The refrigerator controlling method includes comparing a freezing chamber temperature with a freezing chamber reference temperature suitable to store goods in a freezing chamber, if the freezing chamber temperature is not higher than the freezing chamber reference temperature, comparing a refrigerating chamber temperature with a refrigerating chamber reference temperature suitable to store goods in a refrigerating chamber, examining whether the refrigerating chamber temperature is continuously higher than the refrigerating chamber reference temperature for a predetermined period of time, and if the refrigerating chamber temperature is continuously higher than the refrigerating chamber reference temperature for the predetermined period of time, controlling a compressor and a refrigerating chamber fan to be turned on and a freezing chamber fan to be turned off such that the refrigerating chamber is cooled.
