甘瑰
Kan Huai 甘瑰
Son of Gan Ning. Exiled from Wu some time after his father’s death for causing trouble.
干吉
Kan Chi 干吉
A Taoist priest. In the novel, sent to execution by Sun Ce and said to have cursed him to death.

Notes: Gan Ji frequently referenced as ‘Yu Ji’, especially in games. Historically, ‘Gan Ji’ (干吉) is correct, and it is thought Luo Guanzhong may have confused the character for his family name and thus entered him as ‘Yu Ji’ (于吉). Notice the similarity between Gan ‘干’ and Yu ‘于’. I have recorded here in Chinese “Gan4 Ji2”, and “Yu2 Ji2” for reference second.
