A memory system includes a memory device configured to store data, and a memory controller configured to perform communication between a host and the memory device and to control the memory device such that, during an operation of programming sequential data, a hash value is generated from logical block addresses of a memory area, to which the sequential data is to be written, and the hash value is stored and such that, during an operation of reading the sequential data, the sequential data is read from the memory area based on the hash value.
