Jang Seung-eop (1843 – 1897) (commonly known by his pen name Owon) was a painter of the late Joseon Dynasty in Korea. His life was dramatized in the award-winning 2002 film ''Chi-hwa-seon'' directed by Im Kwon-taek. He was one of the few painters to hold a position of rank in the Joseon court.

He first had the opportunity to paint extensively when he was taken into the household of aristocrat Yi Ung-heon in his 20s.
