Original Abstract Submitted
Provided herein may be a memory controller and a memory system including the same. The memory system may include a plurality of memory devices, each including a plurality of zone blocks, a buffer memory configured to store pieces of map data that are respectively allocated to a plurality of zones corresponding to logical address groups provided by a host and that indicate correspondence relationships between the plurality of zones and physical addresses of the plurality of zone blocks, and a memory controller configured to perform a data movement operation of storing data, which is stored in a zone block allocated to one of the plurality of zones, in an additional zone block based on information related to the plurality of zone blocks, and update a physical address of the zone block corresponding to the one zone to a physical address of the additional zone block.
