[LG refrigerator door gasket] There is mold on the door gasket. The door gasket is stained with black foreign objects.

Troubleshooting

When the refrigerator door is open and closed, the cold air in the refrigerator meets warm air from outside.
At that time, condensation can be generated due to the differences in air temperatures.
If this moisture is not dried, mold can form.
The door gasket can be stained with dust as time passes.
