1. A refrigerator comprising: a main body having a refrigerating compartment;at least one door to open and close the refrigerating compartment and, together with the refrigerating compartment, forming a refrigerating area inside the refrigerator;an icemaker to make ice;a dispenser to dispense water;an assembly including a filter connector to connect to a filter having an elongated shape so that the elongated shape of the filter is horizontally elongated and so that the filter purifies water to be fed from an external water source to the icemaker and the dispenser,a water tank having a cylindrical, horizontally elongated shape so that, when the filter connector is connected to the filter, the water tank is vertically arranged in parallel with the filter, anda valve provided so that, when the filter connector is connected to the filter, the valve is at a junction of the filter, the water tank and the icemaker, to selectively supply the water, purified by the filter, to the water tank or the icemaker; andan assembly compartment to enclose at least the water tank and the valve of the assembly and having an opening which allows the filter connector of the assembly to be connectable to the filter,wherein the assembly compartment is positioned in the refrigerating area. 2. The refrigerator according to claim 1, further comprising: first and second storage containers horizontally arranged in parallel and adapted to be drawn from the refrigerating compartment,wherein the assembly compartment is positioned between the first and second storage containers. 3. The refrigerator according to claim 1, further comprising: a storage container adapted to be drawn from the refrigerating compartment,wherein the assembly compartment is positioned between the storage container and a sidewall of the refrigerator. 4. The refrigerator according to claim 1, further comprising: a control valve provided on a line to connect the external water source and the filter connector to each other and serving to control supply of water from the external water source,wherein the assembly compartment encloses the control valve. 5. A refrigerator comprising: a main body having a refrigerating compartment;at least one door to open and close the refrigerating compartment and, together with the refrigerating compartment, forming a refrigerating area inside the refrigerator;an icemaker to make ice;a dispenser to dispense water;an assembly including a filter connector to connect to a filter having an elongated shape so that the elongated shape of the filter is horizontally elongated and so that the filter purifies water to be fed from an external water source to the icemaker and the dispenser,a water tank having a cylindrical, horizontally elongated shape so that, when the filter connector is connected to the filter, the water tank is vertically arranged in parallel with the filter and stores the water purified by the filter, anda valve provided so that, when the filter connector is connected to the filter, the valve is at a junction of the water tank, the icemaker and the dispenser, to selectively supply the water, stored in the water tank, to the icemaker or the dispenser; andan assembly compartment to enclose at least the water tank and the valve of the assembly and having an opening which allows the filter connector of the assembly to be connectable to the filter,wherein the assembly compartment is positioned in the refrigerating area. 6. The refrigerator according to claim 5, further comprising: first and second storage containers horizontally arranged in parallel and adapted to be drawn from the refrigerating compartment,wherein the assembly compartment is positioned between the first and second storage containers. 7. The refrigerator according to claim 5, further comprising: a storage container adapted to be drawn from the refrigerating compartment,wherein the assembly compartment is positioned between the storage container and a sidewall of the refrigerator. 8. The refrigerator according to claim 5, further comprising: a control valve provided on a line to connect the external water source and the filter connector to each other and serving to control supply of water from the external water source,wherein the assembly compartment encloses the control valve.
