An electron gun for a color CRT includes a triode including cathodes for emitting electron beams, a control electrode, and a screen electrode, at least two focusing electrodes on the same axis of the triode portion for forming a quadrupole lens, and a final focusing electrode forming a large diameter lens with the focusing electrodes and through which three electron beams commonly pass. The electron gun includes a correction unit producing a correction force acting on the three electron beams and that is larger for two side electron beams than for a central electron beam of the three electron beams when a dynamic voltage, synchronized with a deflection signal, is applied to at least one of the focusing electrodes for forming the quadrupole lens.
