The present invention relates to a hinge assembly for a door of a kimchi storage device which mounts a door opening and closing a storage chamber of the kimchi storage device on the upper surface of a body. There is provided an integral hinge assembly for a door of a kimchi storage device which can prevent the impact during door opening and closing operations and can prevent the damage of the door by interconnecting: a cover plate fixed to a body; a hinge housing in which there are inserted an elastic means, a support plate backing up the elastic means, a control plate controlling a springback force and a support member connected to the elastic means and supporting a force between the elastic means and a press member; a turn member connected with the press member and fixed to the door.
