A drying apparatus is proposed. The main body (100) may constitute the frame of the drying apparatus. The fan receiving part (104) may be provided in an upper part of the main body (100), and the fan assembly (160) may be installed in the fan receiving part (104). In the fan receiving part (104), the fan of the fan assembly (160) may be relatively located at a side of a rear end of the main body (100), and a fan motor (170) may be relatively located at a side of the front end of the main body (100). Accordingly, outside air may be introduced through the side edges of the rear end of the main body (100); may flow through a filter assembly (180) directly to the fan housing (162); and may flow through the air exit (169) of the fan housing (162) directly to the duct (130).
