hope to see the actors again
Overall: this was a disappointing special. I do hope to see all of the main actors in another series soon as I think they did a good job with the plot they were given. The special episode was about 53 minutes. Aired on GagaOOLala https://www.gagaoolala.com/en/videos/4591/i-saw-you-in-my-dream-2024-e13 and WeTV https://wetv.vip/en/play/w52tycxawaajel4-I%20Saw%20You%20In%20My%20Dream/u41005rux5c-EP13%3A%20You%20%26%20I%20in%20Our%20DreamWhat I Liked
- sweet moments
- good f/f established relationship
- production value
Room For Improvement
- there was zero character growth, 4 years later and they still had poor communication and one character was extremely immature, he intentionally caused the love of his life to be distressed, it wasn't cute or funny
- very odd that the main couple had zero kisses in the special and the side couple had a few quick pecks/some dodging that happened
- nonsense world building, something could suddenly happen that had never happened before, the flashback was a non-explanation
- comedy sound effects didn't make things funny

A cute special
Ugh, damnit. I weirdly enjoyed that.Like with all specials, it was just an epilogue kind of deal, four years later, what's going on with the characters, all that, and they tried to incorporate newer fantasy elements regarding the dreams, but besides that aspect being new in a special, this was as tried and true as it gets.
I would've liked, just like the series, if the fantasy aspect had been developed more. I actually think the added complexity of Ai being able to control his dream, Yu being able to venture into Ai's dream would have been so interesting to explore and they should have done that in the series itself. The fantasy aspect overall was just very underdone, thirteen episodes and I wanted a little bit more, even though I loved the romance.
That being said, I have no complaints about the romance. It did take me by surprise when they said they've been dating for four or five years, and that's only because I didn't bat an eyelid when I thought Yu was proposing to Ai after maybe a few months of dating, lol. I don't know what happened there, but both the couples had plenty of moments and the chaos and comedy that comes with these catch ups.
It's nothing new and nothing brilliant, but it was sweet and funny and they wrapped up what was already well wrapped up, even better.

One of the most memorable phrases in cinema: "I'm just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her", is uttered by Julia Roberts to Hugh Grant in the film 'Notting Hill', one of the comedy classics romantic from the 90s. The truth is that marriage proposals are one of the most anticipated moments, both for men and women. It is when they declare their love and the hope of staying together for longer, sharing a life. In television series, many characters have waited a long time until the moment arrives, or they have not been able to decide, but the truth is that when it happens we cannot take our eyes off the screen.
With flowers? With candles? In the moonlight? On a plane? On a sinking ocean liner? In a movie theater before the surprised gaze of spectators? With the most beautiful words we have ever heard? Kneeling on the ground?
All of us love to show in detail how much we love our partners. Sometimes we do it with flowers; other times, inviting him out to dinner or preparing a romantic dinner at home; others, doing something for the other that we would never dare to do. In this sense, perhaps you or your partner are considering going one step further and asking the other person to marry him/her.
Beyond the ring or getting on your knees, what you will remember all your life will be the words they say to you and that moment in which the world stops spinning, or maybe it spins faster than usual, because you and your beloved boy They are the center of the universe.
Ai and Yu, the protagonists of WeTV's 'Special: I Saw You in My Dream: You & I in Our Dream', walk these paths.
Four years after the events narrated in the series, the two boys are a happy couple. One night, Ai dreams that Yu makes her one of the impossible-to-forget movie proposals, but the next day she sees in a dream that her boyfriend breaks up with him.
Puzzled about what the future holds for him, along with Yu, Ing and Yo, he travels to Chonbury for a three-day vacation.
And if it seems that Ai and Yu have a radiant and healthy relationship, some incidents could suggest just the opposite. And this worries the young man in love with his neighbor and lifelong friend.
Are they ready to take that big step before the altar (remember that they are Catholic? Do they have shared purposes or not? Do they trust each other? Is one the safe harbor for the other? Are they convinced that their future fiancé really motivates you to be better people? Are you ready to take on a life together? Doesn't committing yourself mean being by that person's side forever? Doesn't this mean being able to feel happy, calm and inspired by your side and that the first one? The emotion you feel when thinking about the other is: joy!? Between doubts and insecurities, Ai struggles.
It won't be "I'm just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her" the phrase we will hear from Yu's lips, but, to play with the entire series: "Our wedding won't be just a dream... because it's going to happen" be real", feeling both their feet sink into the sand of the beach, receiving the warm sea breeze on their faces, in the light of the bright sun, with their hearts racing, and with Me and Ing as unexpected witnesses.
I hope to see other marriage proposals in Thai BLs, the last one more emotional and touching than the last.
Let 'Special: I Saw You in My Dream: You & I in Our Dream' serve as the fair and definitive demand for Thailand to finally approve the Equal Marriage Law and, above all, to combat discrimination and harassment of people Thai LGBT+. At least the first of these wishes seems to be close to being achieved.
