The Chung Young Yang Embroidery Museum (Korean: 정영양 자수 박물관) is a textile museum in Seoul, South Korea.

It was founded by Dr. Young Yang Chung and 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][needs update]

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.
