There is disclosed a memory system and method. The memory system may include a plurality of memory planes including two or more data memory areas, and a memory controller adapted to controlling reading, writing, and erasing of the plurality of memory planes. When any one of the data memory areas is occupied with one of a write operation and an erase operation, the controller may reconstruct data stored in the one occupied data memory area by reading parity information and data stored in the plurality of memory areas other than the one occupied data memory area.
