The Chung Young Yang Embroidery Museum, founded by Dr. Young Yang Chung in Seoul, is an exhibition, educational, and research facility dedicated to advancing the knowledge and appreciation of embroidery and textile arts.
Inaugurated in May 2004 by Sookmyung Women's University. It was closed for renovation in December 2017. It is expected to reopen in September 2019.[1]
Its exhibits are not limited to Korean embroidery; there are also items from other areas in East Asia (notably Chinese embroidery on imperial robes) and elsewhere.
