A little weirded out by how my friend eats

Im a korean who grew up and am living overseas and i invited a friend over today and made her a standard Korean homemade lunch.
It was the standard rice, bulgogi, kimchi side with other common side dishes.

It took me a while to notice but she was eating each of the dishes separately??? Like she would take the rice, chew it and swallow it all before taking the meat and doing the same thing. Same for kimchi. She was eating each and every dish separately I don’t know how to explain it. Is eating like this normal or am I weird for pointing it out?? She ate like this for the entire meal.

I thought she didn’t like my food but she said it was good and not to brag but I’m not bad at cooking or anything. I asked her about it and she said it’s just how she eats. huuuuh. I mean I’d understand if she was trying Korean cuisine for the first time but she’s Korean.??? Huuuuh. Do any of u guys eat like this too? Personally I mix everything and take a bit of every side dish for every bite.

Also a year ago I remember getting bibimbap with her for school lunch and she did not mix the bibimbap she just ate it without mixing. I have honestly never met anyone with more peculiar eating habits.
