Is the 10 day mourning period a cultural thing, or will the North Korean gov’t be using the time to plot something nefarious?

Yes, it is cultural. In old days, a funeral usually lasted for 10 days. Sometimes even longer. Depends on one’s stature, of course.

They have to get a few million people ready to cry on cue for the cameras.
