Chat-Shire (stylized as CHAT-SHIRE) is the seventh Korean-language extended play (ninth overall) by South Korean singer-songwriter and actress IU. The self-produced EP was released digitally on October 23, 2015, and physically four days later by LOEN Entertainment under its imprint LOEN Tree.[1] This is her first original material release since Modern Times (2013).

Chat-Shire contains seven tracks in total including the lead single "Twenty-Three". It also features two CD-only bonus tracks ("Heart" and "Twenty Three") from KBS's television series The Producers where IU starred as a lead role.[2]
