Abstract: According to embodiments of the present disclosure, provided is a clothes treatment apparatus comprising: a tub; a drum, which accommodates clothes, is made from a metal material, and is rotatably provided in the tub; and an induction module provided on the outer surface of the tub so as to generate an electromagnetic field, thereby heating the circumferential surface of the drum, wherein the induction module includes: a coil around which a wire is wound so that an electric field is generated by the application of an electric current thereto; a base housing mounted on the outer peripheral surface of the tub so as to accommodate the coil; and a blocking part disposed between the base housing and the tub so as to block the electric current when being heated to or above a preset temperature by the amount of heat transmitted from the coil and/or the amount of heat transmitted from the drum. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide the clothes treatment apparatus, which detects overheating of each of the drum and the coil through one blocking part so as to block the electric current before the clothes treatment apparatus is heated up to a dangerous temperature, thereby ensuring safety.
