Dear Jay,

Sooa Im McCormick, Curator of Korean art at the Cleveland Museum of Art,
recently curated a show on Korean embroidery:
https://www.clevelandart.org/exhibitions/gold-needles-embroidery-arts-korea
She may be able to answer your questions and/or refer you to an expert in
Korea.

I will send you her contact information in a separate email.

Kindest regards,
Maya Stiller
University of Kansas
