1. A reflection module, comprising:
a reflective member including an incident surface, a reflective surface, and an emitting surface; and
a holder on which the reflective member is mounted and including a cover portion covering a portion of the emitting surface,
wherein the holder comprises a mounting surface on which the reflective member is mounted, a first side portion disposed to surround a first side surface of the reflective member, and a second side portion disposed to surround a second side surface of the reflective member,
wherein the cover portion comprises a first cover portion covering a first edge in which a first side of the emitting surface connects to the first side surface of the reflective member, a second cover portion covering a second edge in which a second side surface of the emitting surface, opposite the first side of the emitting surface, connects to the second side surface of the reflective member, and a third portion covering a portion in which the emitting surface connects to the reflective surface, and
wherein an area of the cover portion covering the first edge and the second edge increases progressively from an upper portion in a direction toward a lower portion of the emitting surface.
