In a recent work by Fernandes [arXiv:2305.10382], an exact stationary and axisymmetric solution was discovered in semiclassical gravity with type-A trace anomaly, identified as a quantum-corrected version of the Kerr black hole. This discovery presents exciting research opportunities for observing non-circular spacetimes. In this study, we explore the light rings and shadow of this black hole solution. Our investigation reveals that there exist prograde and retrograde normal light rings, whose radii increase monotonically with the coupling parameter $\alpha$. We also observe that when $\alpha$ is negative, the shadow area for the quantum-corrected black hole is smaller than that of the Kerr black hole, whereas when $\alpha$ is positive, the area is larger. Furthermore, the NHEKline for nearly extreme black hole disappears when $\alpha$ is greater than zero, while it appears for negative $\alpha$, even if the spin is not too high. Such line sinks in the middle part when $|\alpha|$ is relatively large if $\alpha$ is less than zero.
