The present disclosure relates to a drum-type washing machine, which is expected to prevent lock of a driving motor due to cloth entanglement and the like. A drum-type washing machine includes an outer tub (20) disposed inside a machine housing (10); a drum (22) disposed in the outer tub (20) and capable of rotating about an axis inclined with respect to a horizontal direction as a center; a rotating body (24) disposed in the drum (22) and having a protruding portion (24a) coming into contact with laundry on the surface; a driving portion (30) including a driving motor and is configured to transmit a torque of the driving motor to the drum (22) and the rotor (24) so as to rotate the drum (22) and the rotating body (24) at different rotation speeds; and a controlling portion for controlling an operation of the driving portion (30). The controlling portion is configured to perform a reduction control for reducing a load when a magnitude of the load (24) applied to the rotating body exceeds a predetermined magni
