a blower which blows the wind to the first area and the second area; and
an auxiliary inside-air inlet hole formed by hollowing out a region to allow internal air to enter the second region, and abutting a third adjustable door, the opening and closing of which is controlled by said third adjustable door, and the auxiliary inside-air inlet hole is adjacent to an inside-air inlet and is formed by hollowing out a portion of a partition wall, which is a partition wall separating a first area and a second area, and moving a portion of the air entering the first area through said inside-air inlet to the second area via said auxiliary inside-air inlet, wherein the air entering the second area is not cooled and heated and is discharged to the outside of the vehicle.
