Thanks to Tony and Tim for such informative help.

I tried to key in with ^V in Insert mode, and it does shows a symbol
other than ^].

After checking my setting of xkb, terminator, tmux...,
it is my X input method's fault that taking ^] over and send other symbol.

Turn this option off, and ^] work as well.

Greatly appreciate your replies.

Best regards,
