Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed are an ion generating device and an air conditioner having the same. The air conditioner may include a housing; a blower configured to cause a flow of air passing through an inner space of the housing; a heat exchanger located in the inner space of the housing; and an ion generating device spaced apart from the heat exchanger and coupled to an inner side of the housing, wherein the ion generating device may include an ionizer; and a fan configured to cause a flow of an ion generated in the ionizer, wherein one of the blower and the ion generating device may be operated while the other may be stopped.
