Memory system and method for operating the same

A memory system comprising:

• a controller configured to queue a plurality of commands and output control signals in response to the plurality of queued commands;
• and
• a memory device configured to perform a program operation in response to the control signals,
• wherein, when the program operation fails, the memory device stores data in a new memory block by performing a recovery operation,
• wherein the controller holds the plurality of queued commands and then corrects a position corresponding to a read command, among the plurality of commands, to a position of the new memory block.

A method for operating a memory system, the method comprising:

• queuing a plurality of commands input from a host in a controller;
• generating control signals according to an order of the plurality of commands queued in the controller, and performing operations of a memory device, including a program operation, based on the control signals;
• and
• when the program operation fails, holding the generating of the control signals and performing a recovery operation of the memory device;
• and
• checking whether there is a read command among the plurality of queued commands, and, when the read command exists, correcting a position corresponding to the read command to a recovery position and then re-queuing the plurality of commands including the corrected read command.
