Onionhead of Flying Dragons

In the neon-lit heart of New York’s Chinatown, the Flying Dragons turned extortion, gambling, and heroin into an empire that ruled the neighborhood by fear and silence. At the center was Johnny “Onionhead” Eng, a quiet, calculating boss who transformed a street gang into the muscle of an international drug pipeline. From the hidden mahjong parlors of Mott Street to violent showdowns with rival gangs, Eng’s reign defined an era when Chinatown lived under rules outsiders could never fully understand. This is the story of how the Flying Dragons rose, thrived, and ultimately fell—leaving behind a legend as enduring as the streets they once controlled.
