Do Koreans cut their meat with scissors?

I went to a Korean buffet with my family, and we were supposed to cook our own meat, if we chose some. We did, and we came back. Then our waiter asked if we have ever been here before. We said no, and then he started cutting our meat and grilling it.

The only thing was, he was using scissors to cut it.

Is this tradition?

Update:

Oh.

I have much to learn.

They just looked like scissors to me.

And yes, dinner was good.

Update 2:

    They're called cooking shears and have been around forever.

    I have a pair and use them regularly to cut whole chickens.

    I bet dinner was good regardless!!! :)
