6. The refrigerator of claim 5 , wherein the upper trim includes an upper trim segment provided to segment the upper trim protrusion into a plurality of portions.
7. The refrigerator of claim 5 , wherein
the door includes a fixing member provided to cover a portion of an upper surface of the upper door cap, and
the upper trim protrusion includes an upper trim hole formed to allow a portion of the fixing member to be inserted thereinto when the upper trim protrusion is accommodated in the upper coupling groove.
8. The refrigerator of claim 5 , wherein the door body includes a cover, when the door panel is separated from the door body, allowing the upper coupling groove to be exposed.
9. The refrigerator of claim 8 , wherein the door body includes chassis arranged at opposite sides of the cover and protruding forward than the cover to form a space together with the cover in which the door panel is accommodated when the door panel is mounted on the door body.
10. The refrigerator of claim 9 , wherein the door panel, when mounted on the door body, is provided to protrude forward than the chassis.
11. The refrigerator of claim 9 , wherein the cover includes a cover hole which a fastening member passes through to fix the cover to the chassis.
12. The refrigerator of claim 9 , wherein, when the door panel is mounted on the door body, opposite side ends of the panel body are supported by the chassis.
13. The refrigerator of claim 9 , wherein the accommodation portion of the door body is formed in the chassis.
14. The refrigerator of claim 1 , wherein
the door panel includes a buffer member including a shock absorbing material or a sound absorbing material, and
the side trim includes a first side trim and a second side trim arranged at opposite sides, respectively, of the buffer member.
15. The refrigerator of claim 1 , wherein the side trim includes a material different from a material forming the panel body.
