Yang Shu-chun or Judy Yang (Chinese: 楊淑君; pinyin: Yáng Shújūn; born October 26, 1985, in Yingge, Taipei County, now New Taipei City) is a female Taiwanese taekwondo athlete. She won the women's flyweight (under 51 kg) gold medal at the 2008 Asian Taekwondo Championships. In July 2011, Yang withdrew the appeal over her disqualification.[1] In the 2012 London Olympics, Yang lost to Chanatip Sonkham of Thailand in the quarterfinals.
